Greetings,

It's me again with more novice questions.  While I've got the interactive
ppp working I'm still trying to work out a few kinks.

I am trying to get it to work as an on demand process but it never seems to 
time out and disconnect. I am using the examples provided in the files
as distributed and those I've found in the documentation. It always starts
and I can use the connection just fine. Even when I close all the applications
that might use ppp and leave it for 3 or 4 times longer than the "timeout"
variable it still seems to be connected. That is, checking email is almost
immediate and there is no dialing etc. (I'm using 2.1.5R)

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, John
.
