The most likely cause of this behavior is that the system on the other end
drops you after some amount of idle time. But this is only a guess. To see
what's really going on, review the *complete* log of *one* pppd session (one
that experiences the idle timeout, of course) in /var/spool/messages . If
you don't have the experience to do this yourself, post a follow-up message
to the list with the log entries and, possibly, I or someone else will be
able to help you interpret them.
