Dear Debian users,
I am using Debian 1.2. I set up my box to connect to an ISP using PPP, I
invoke the connection by the script pon, it all work out fine. Now I want
to join another ISP. How do I set up my box, to connect to two ISP, one
at a time? Please help.

My kludgy, but servicable and robust approach to this is to keep two
sets of files. Mine are named *.isp1 and *.isp2. I then have two
connect pre-scripts that simple copy all the correct files and then
call the ppp-on script or whatever you use to start up ppp. The
files of interest are:
I have a dumb question... why is there a need for two ISP dialins? If
they are in the same calling area, you don't need to log into both, just
one, and you can grab all your email, etc, from both.
A need for a second isp is understandable if you are traveling elsewhere,
though.

Well, to make a long story short. I am going to switch ISP. There may
have other reasons why some folks need two or more different ISP, may be
one of them is for work etc.

My approach to two ISP's is a little different than the one David
described. One of my ISP's is my employer (so I don't want my kids
connecting there by mistake), the other is Together Networks (a
Burlington, Vermont based ISP).
I have duplicate sets of files for each ISP:
/etc/sendmail.cf
