I am having a problem getting user PPP do redial automatically after the
modem is disconnected.  I have tried setting the timeout to 0 and the
using the -ddial option.  Setting the timeout to 0 doesn't cause the
modem to redial after any length of time. 

Today I downloaded the newest ppp from Brian Somers site, but I still
have the exact same problem.  I am using FreeBSD 2.2.2.

Any ideas?



While using ppp -ddial I get the following:

chris@athena% ppp -ddial eln
User Process PPP. Written by Toshiharu OHNO.
Using interface: tun0
Automatic Dialer mode
Must specify dstaddr with auto, background or ddial mode.

In my ppp.conf file I am using this default entry:

default:
 set device /dev/cuaa2
 set speed 38400
 disable lqr
 deny lqr
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

and this as my eln entry

eln:
 set phone 916096317980
 set login "TIMEOUT 10 Login: ELN/theta Password: XXXX"
 set timeout 0

and this in my ppp.linkup file:

demand:
 delete all
 add 0 0 HISADDR

MYADDR:
 delete 0 0
 add 0 0 HISADDR
