subject: removing an interface no longer in use

 * Crossposted to OS2LAN
i'm doing dialup TCP/IP and 'regular' TCP/IP on my internal lan. i'm 
searching for a way to remove an interface that is no longer in use. the 
program i'm using for the dialup, injoy, doesn't remove the interface(s) it 
creates when it terminates the call. when this happens, it's more time than 
not, causes vmodem to fail apparently looking at the old interface instead of 
the new one.
  For interface 10, my address is 166.102.117.14
           destination address is 166.102.117.1
  For interface 11, my address is 166.102.117.9
           destination address is 166.102.117.1
interface 10 is the only one i want to "maintain" ... i haven't seen an 
interface 12, yet... either way, when i shut down injoy, i want to =remove= 
all interfaces from 10 and up...
interface 0 is my network card, interface 10 is PPP0 and interface 11 is 
PPP1...
a REXX script to handle this would be just fine... and maybe a few pointers 
to some help files for the utils in MPTN/BIN (at least)... "help netstat" 
only tells me that it cannot open the files :-(
