I am not sure if I understand this. Are you saying that your ISDN
connection is only up (dials out) when connected by some diald (or other
daemon)? And that it connects when you don't want it to?
Use "ps auxwwww" to see what daemons are running. Maybe disable diald (or
whatever dials up) and just connect manually instead.
Look at all your crontabs -- can you correlate some process with the same
time that it dials up?
How often does it try to connect? (What times?)
