The problem is that pppd won't down the link if ANY traffic is coming into or going out of the link. Run tcpdump and see where the traffic is coming from. In my case, my ISP sends RIP packets every 30 seconds. There is SUPPOSEDLY a method to filter out the unwanted incoming packets (the active-filter option in the ppp conf file), but for some insane reason, it's NOT supported under Linux. It's only supported under Net-BSD. Chance C. Geurin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) RT Logic! (http://www.rtlogic.com) Colorado Springs, Colorado Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
