I was wondering if there were a way to have it break and redial if the link was not started X seconds after the dial? Occasionally, the login name and passwd are sent, but I am not authenticated. (The server, to be updated very soon, just get's too loaded down to start the session). Anyhow, when this happens, I'd like the script to wait a few seconds and then redial. Is this possible?
