Hi again I have managed to get iij-ppp to connect to my ISP and sorted out the routing problems I was having with the rest of my internal LAN so that any node in my network can talk to the rest of the world once the ppp link is established. Thanks to all who helped me with that. I have even got demand dialling working now so that any machine in the network will cause the link to go up. my only problem now is that I need the link to go down and the modem to disconnect after a period of inactivity on the link. I have put in a timeout value of 120 in the ppp.conf file but the connection doesn't die. Even if I connect manually with the same timeout value set the link won't disconnect after even 5 minutes idle time. Once again any help would be appreciated.. thanks ========================================================================= Carey Nairn ! email : Carey.Nairn@its.utas.edu.au Networks and Communications ! phone : (002) 20 7419 Information Technology Services ! fax : (002) 20 7898 University of Tasmania. ! =========================================================================
