My n900 has a GPRS connection in Internet Connections that can't be deleted.

Now here are some probems that I'm facing and I would like to delete it (I can ssh into my phone, I just need the file where it's stored):
The connection settings are stored in gconf . You can list this settings with the command:
Code:
gconftool --all-dirs /system/osso/connectivity/IAP
One of this entries is your GPRS APN for example
/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/PROVIDERNAME
now, you can list all entries for this APN
Code:
gconftool -a  /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/PROVIDERNAME

This is strange. I use this option as well and it never autoconnect to GPRS.
What happens if you set it to autoconnect for WIFI only?

currently my phone bill is 15 euros, everything made just because it connects me automatically.

I would like to delete that connection for ever, so if there's a method .. let me know.

Thanks
Do you want to disable any GPRS or just exchange this APN with another one?
You may try gconf to "unset" all config settings for your GPRS APN.
But I must admit I don't know what would happen :-)

Maybe a simpler solution, can you request another config sms from
your service provider for the APN you want.
