PPP answer autostart

I recently created a PPP connection on our AS/400 to allow dialup users.
It's pretty slick.  But I have to start it every day!  (We do a full backup
every night from a restricted state.)

Is there an approved method for starting this?  Or should I create a jobd
and add an autostart job to QSYSWRK?  Or perhaps just STRTCPPTP
CFGPRF(DIALIN) in the startup program?

I made sure the box was checked in Ops Nav that said auto restart, but I
think that just means after the connection drops, it goes back to RINGW.

TIA!
