OK, I am useinf pppd to connect on boot, I call it from rc.local. That is no
problem, what I would like to do is if the connection drops, have it
automatically redial....any ideas?
Here is my /etc/ppp/options file
------------------------------------------
/etc/ppp/options
/dev/cuaa1 115200
crtscts # enable hardware flow control
modem # modem control line
connect "/usr/bin/chat -f /etc/ppp/login.chat.script"
noipdefault # remote PPP server must supply your IP address.
# if the remote host doesn't send your IP during
# IPCP negotiation, remove this option
passive # wait for LCP packets
domain cybcon.com # put your domain name here
:205.147.64.49 # put the IP of remote PPP host here
# it will be used to route packets via PPP link
# if you didn't specified the noipdefault option
# change this line to <local_ip>:<remote_ip>
defaultroute # put this if you want that PPP server will be
# your default router
--------------------------------------------
and here is my /etc/ppp/login.chat.script
ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO CARRIER' "" AT OK ATDTXXXXXXX CONNECT "" TIMEOUT 10
ogin:-\\r-ogin mylogin TIMEOUT 5 sword: mypassword
---------------------------------------------------
Any ideas appreciated.
