Package: ppp Version: 2.4.3-20050321 Severity: important Hi,
I have a flat rate pppoe connection which I want to be up all time. For
obscure (and non-changeable) reasons, I session is disconnected by the
remote side every 24h (=1440minutes). I can reconnect immediately after,
so IMHO persist with 5 second holdoff ist close enough to "always on".
This used to work quite well.
Following bugs #298657 and #301018 I have installed ppp-2.4.3-20050321.
Unfortunately, for me, it does not help.
This is the log from a remote side terminated session. I am mainly
wondering where the signal 15 (SIGTERM) comes from. (A SIGHUP triggers a
reconnect as expected.)

One annoying "feature" of this bug is that I do not know any other way
of reproducing it other than aiting 24h till the next remote disconnect,
which leads to lengthy turn-around times.
