Actually if your modem is configured correctly (CD drop on Carrier loss &C1), and if the pppd is given the option "modem" the Process will hangup if the line goes down. This is not the actual hardware handshake, but on of the RS232 signals. # modem Use the modem control lines. This option is the # default. With this option, pppd will wait for the # CD (Carrier Detect) signal from the modem to be # asserted when opening the serial device (unless a # connect script is specified), and it will drop the # DTR (Data Terminal Ready) signal briefly when the # connection is terminated and before executing the # connect script. On Ultrix, this option implies # hardware flow control, as for the crtscts option. Hangup on DTR dropping should be configured, too (&D2).
