pppd won't reconnect
Hi,
I'm on one of those DSL lines that will disconnect me at least once a
day, so that I don't have a static IP.
I've set up my box to reconnect immediately, but about five days a week
it doesn't work but requires me to log into the box and 'pon' myself.
Here's a few snipplets from syslog. I looked up ioctl and tcflush, but
won't pretend that I understood.
Anyone got a clue what's going on?
Regards,
Schnobs
