Quite often when I am connected to the internet using pppd the connection will spontaneously terminate, with pppd reporting that it received a SIGHUP (see syslog extract below).
I changed a line in my /usr/bin/pon script from 'exec pppd' to 'exec nohup pppd' but this hasn't helped. Anyone know what's going on?
