"alarm" means that chat is timing out. The default timeout can be changed
with chat's '-t' option: man chat.
You could also just call pppd with the 'persist' option (pppconfig can set
this up). 'Persist' wonn't bring the connection back

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to get pppd to try for n times to connect to my
isp before giving up.
The problem is that quite often, pppd dials, then noting happens for a
little while then it stops - with a helpful "alarm" entered in the logs.
I *think* this error corresponds to the isp not answeri

Use diald to maintain the link, and set dial-fail-limit:

hi,
I've got a Linux Router Project (Debian based) box running a
permanent connection to the 'net via a 57.6 modem.
I'm using pppd in persist mode and a few weeks ago over the weekend
the account ran out of credits at the ISP so they disabled the account.
The box rang the ISP every minute or so
