Using PPP -direct i occur the following problem.

A user logs in and types ppp at the csh prompt, this then executes ppp and
allows the user to load some winsock software and use ppp.  When a user
drops carrier it exits ppp but doesn't exit the csh shell.  Therefore
leaving the user logged in, even though there is no one connected to
the modem.

Now, it doesn't look like a DTR modem problem, because if the user remains
in shell and never loads ppp ... If they drop carrier everything is ok.
This problem only happens in ppp.

Any ideas?
