I was looking into CIPE in the last week, and the current plans are to
start using CIPE asap, unfortunatly - it's not even close to being as
trivial as pppd over ssh, and except for this anoying problem, the vpn
works great using the script I've written.

I've noticed this too myself - sometimes the ADSL connection just dies.
I have a sysV script (based on my VPN script) that takes good care of the
ADSL, and restarts it if it dies. I should probably try to package it ,
like I did the last time (except that now it actually does what it's
supposed to do :-), but instead I'll just mail it to anyone who wants to
have a look.
