Greetings all,

I am using Linux 1.2.13 which suits me quite fine to dial the other
end of a ppp link.  To do this i run a small script that establishes
the link with dip and away i go.. It works fine.

The only problem with it is that of late (The last month) my link will
not hold up for longer then 18 hours or so without dropping.  There
is nothing wrong with the phoneline and nothing else is plugged in
(also tried various modems).  The link used to stay up for a good 1/2
month or more without fail but i cant stop it dropping now.  Im not
new to modems/computers etc, ive tried all the classic fault remidies
other then pulling my hair out. :)

Anyway, what i would like to do is have the system monitor the link
and if its dropped to recall the remote modem after a set time
(5-15mins) aswelll as log the redial attempt into a log file.

Im not a whizz with scripting with tcsh or perl and was wondering if
anyone could help me at all?  I am happy using DIP as it does what i
want with a minimum of fuss for dialout and dialin PPP.

If anyone could help could they please email me?


Catch ya,
