X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01Gold (X11; I; Linux 2.0.14 i586) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: ppp -auto Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk When I run ppp -ddial it works perfectly, but when I try -auto it times out fine but then retries after the same timeout even with no input it just sets and cycles every 300 seconds or whatever time I put in timeout. There must be something very simple here that I am missing and am going to be very embarssed about but I give up. Thanks Ed
