Hello,

I have a client who wants to use an ISDN line to connect their office.
Pretty simple setup.

We're using user PPP with a 3com ISDN terminal unit.  The modem keeps
timing out after 30 minutes and disconnecting.  We want it to remain
up 24x7, redialing whenever it gets disconnected.

I'm using the -auto flag to ppp; should I be using the -ddial flag?

(Yes, I could play with it and see what works, but the client is a 90
minute drive away, and I don't feel like making multiple trips
Christmas week.)

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
==ml
