Why do you want to do this?  It's never necessary if all you're doing is
establishing a PPP connection.  Your Mac already knows all about this.  Do
you have something else in mind?

Simplest  way is

MacPerl::DoAppleScript("PPP connect");

assuming you're using a modern system and Open Transport.  (Applescript is,
on very rare occasions, good for something.)  You can get more
sophisticated than this by sending the AppleEvent corresponding to this
directly from MacPerl.
