Ack, I thought the overinstall.sh script would also copy the
i4b userland stuff into /usr/src/usr.sbin and I was always compiling/installing
from there wondering why my kernel isdnd version went up and up and
my userland version stayed at 80. Now I'm synchronized to i4b-00.90.00,
3.4 RELEASE and isdnd stays up now.

You may know that I mentioned that our campus provider (university
computing center) ceased the fixed (raw ip) connection for a while
(they will probably resurrect it) but for now I'm bound to
use this weird sppp access (by means of i4bisppp). 

One ugly thing is the following: The university accepts every ISDN call
since they have a far larger number of free incoming ISDN connections
than they have free Acend router simultaneous connection 'slots'.

Now what happens on my side when they are busy with their ascend router, is
that isdnd dials in, doesn't get a route and the line is dropped again.

Now, isdnd is sturdy, it dials again as soon as he can and everyone
can imagine that this way my charges can pile up to an extent
that is only limited by the number of seconds until I finally get in,
so to say, a minute has 60 seconds, isdnd redials every third second
so I get 20 units charged per minute (!).

Odd, isdn't it?

What can I do against this behaviour?
