FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE Pentium 100/ 64Mb 2Gb Seagate SCSI Adpatec 2940 (2) 3Com 3c905 10/100 (xl0 & xl1) Question: What is the correct procedure for having userland PPP, called from rc.local, establish and maintain a persistent connection? ppp -dedicated -alias <profile> or... ppp -ddial -alias <profile> Is not working. The PPP process is dropping, sometimes after 13 hours, sometimes after as little as 20 minutes. Even with a single ping running from cron every 5 minutes the connection is dropping, and sometimes not redialing. Does anyone have any ideas? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- George M.
