Automating PPP with cron?

["Timothy M. Hospedales" <hospedales@wow.net>]

Hi,
I would like to setup my system to do two things.
To check periodically to see if my PPP connection has died, and redial
my isp if it has.
And to disconnect and redial every 6 hours, (my isp doesn't like it if
you stay one more than 6 hours consecutively).

What would be the best way to go about implementing this, and how should
I start going about it?

Thanks alot!
Timothy
