Hello all,
with my ADSL provider (a reseller of the german Telekom), I'm unable to
make ppp redial after the link has been lost. With Telekom, you usually
get disconnected every 24h hours, but you can simply reconnect .... if
our ppp would support it.
Have you added this to /etc/rc.conf?
ppp_mode="ddial"
Yes of course, as you can see, ppp(8) is not exiting, but entering an
redial endless loop ...

Not that it helps you much, but I do see working pppoe redial behavior
with Yahoo/AT&T dsl at a client site in the US. I can unhook the dsl
line and it will autoreconnect as soon as it's plugged in again. In the
event of a provider outage it comes back up on its own. The current ppp
session has been running for 59 days, longest session was 353 days, but
the server had to be moved for remodeling.
ppp.conf :
-------
default:
ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE)
set device PPPoE:dc0
set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
set dial
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0
add default HISADDR # Add a (sticky) default route
set login
enable dns # request DNS info (for resolv.conf)
papchap:
set authname xxxxxxxxx
set authkey xxxxxxxx
