Jaye Mathisen:

|Any tips or ideas appreciated.
If you're using chat for dialup before turning control over to PPP try
something like:
if chat -t 90 -r /opt/log/dialup \
REPORT CONNECT \
ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT BUSY ABORT "NO DIAL TONE" \
"" "$INITSTRING" \
"OK" "AT$DIALSTRING" \
"Password:" "$SERVER_PASSWORD" \
...
then
# Do ppp here
else
# Process chat error here
fi
CONNECT lines will be appended to /opt/log/dialup.
Didn't grok the argument about this not being useful. If one's paying
their ISP for 28.8 or 56K access, it's prudent to make sure that one's
getting the service they're paying for and not just tossing money into the
breeze.
