First off, which version of isdn4bsd are you using ? The one which

I start it in /etc/rc.local. But it should start OK from rc.network.
Can't say why it doesn't work for you. You could trying putting
``set -x'' into rc.network and rc.isdn and look at the output.

That directory is normally reserved for ports use.

good question. It works fine for me. See above.

oh, that's very interesting. But we can't answer your question without
a lot more information. However, I suspect that the facility is only
meant to be used in conjunction with isdnmonitor, not telnet. You've
probably tickled a bug in either isdnd or the kernel by using the wrong
tool/protocol. Don't do that :-)
I'm not about to crash my machine to track it down.
