I have look through the entire /usr/share/doc tree and didn't find anything about ppp not hanging up modems, etc.. Someone please put this in the FAQ. I have read usenet posts about this one.

I don't like spending hours debuging code only to discover the code is fine and my modem is misconfigured (sure I should have thought of it first). dicen
