Is there something somewhere I need > to config? Check out the FAQ on http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html. I haven't heard of any other problems with the current ppp in that area (but there *were* such problems in 2.2.5). Can you supply some diagnostics (some pointers on this are given in the FAQ). The `debug' level will tell you the online/offline status (CD detection) of ppp. Once it goes offline, ppp should terminate. Also, how are you starting ppp ? > -- > brian -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
