The livingston won't do dialback when asked by the caller (as far as I
understand), so I have set it up to callback by itself, when I call in.


However, I can't use 

# If you wish to connect to a server that will dial back *without* using
# the ppp callback facility (rfc1570), take advantage of the fact that
# ppp doesn't look for carrier 'till `set login' is complete:
#
# Here, we expect the server to say DIALBACK then disconnect after
# we've authenticated ourselves.  When this has happened, we wait
# 60 seconds for a RING.
#
dialback:
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATZ OK-ATZ-OK \
           ATDT\\T TIMEOUT 60 CONNECT"
 set login "TIMEOUT 5 ogin:--ogin: ppp word: ppp TIMEOUT 15 DIALBACK \
           \"\" NO\\sCARRIER \"\" TIMEOUT 60 RING ATA CONNECT"

because I use pap auth, i.e. I never see the login: prompt.

So after dialing in, and the livingston hangs up, I have to kill ppp, so
mgetty can start a ppp -direct.

How do I tell ppp to hang around waiting for dialback when I can't use the
above method?
