Re: pppd troubles
Dear dUCK
I think pppd is dieing because it is written somewhere in an etc script.
It's something like 'if you dont connect before x-die'
look for this options in the scripts of /etc/ppp
Anyway, from my point of view, the best is making a hand made script for
your ISP
they sometimes appear at local linux or computing magazines
hope this gives you a clue
yours sincerely
