Hello Andrew, Try adding the following line to your ppp.conf file: set log +tcp/ip That will log all traffic and should produce an entry in ppp.log of what tried to use tcp/ip just before the dial occured (it will be time stamped) You might also want to read the section in the FAQ on this: http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/ppp.html#AEN3493 And the handbook section regarding automatical dialing. There is a section that discusses the things that can cause ppp to dial automatically.
