I had already tried both killing pptp and killing ppp and both solutions did
break the connection, but when I ran pptp again to reconnect, everything
seemed OK (no error messages), but I was in fact not on-line.
What I discovered was that in addition to killing pptp, I have to end the ppp0
session (ifconfig ppp0 down). Otherwise, when I run pptp again, it creates a
new ppp session (ppp1) but although there are no error messages, I am in fact
not in-line.
So as I said, the full solution is:
1 - ps
2 - kill x (where x is the PID of pptp)
3 - ifconfig ppp0 down
