Hi,
On this topic, why not try diald? Instead of keeping my ppp on
all the time, I have made t so that I never need know whether I am
connected or not. I just send mail, start a ftp session, or lynx, or
query dns -- and the connection is brought up seemlessly.
I go to the other extreme -- a couple of minutes of idle ppp
causes a disconnect. I only use as much of bandwidth as I need -- and
I also remove most of the bother of ppp connections.
