kppp icon / executable


I would like to make a KDE desktop icon to start KPPP to make a dialup internet connection.

Where is the kppp executable to link the icon to?

Thanks.

If its a suse or slackware:
/opt/kde/bin/kppp

If its redhat, mandrake:
/usr/bin/kppp

Actually u can use the following command to find where is kppp located
$ whereis kppp

Or you can just put 'kppp' in, because kppp is probably in the PATH.
