Having similar problem to Thalakar: I have pppd in demand mode, using dynamic addressing. and it'll reset the adapter address when I connect. It works fine at first, but after a while it will start disconnecting as idle and reconnecting about 5 seconds later. Any idea on how to verify what (if anything) is triggering this redial? When the link _is_ quite idle, sometimes it won't disconnect. All very flaky. No wonder the man page said don't use it with dynamic addressing. :) I've tracked down what triggers is (through kdebug) to a strange frame (well, strange to me!)

What can I use to find out (an ip analyzer/header tool?) One thing I've also noticed when playing with demand is that you end up sometimes with ppp0 and ppp1 adapters (resetting and rerunning). Can't delete an adapter through ifconfig, can I? Christian - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
