Thanks, Mike

Are there any tools available to snoop (i)ppp# interface. Will pppd
debug be the right tool. The problem is that my ISDN connection degrades
after some time and even pinging ippp0 peer becomes impossible and I
need to restart isdn4linux. BT, my telco, and my ISP both claim there is
no fault on thier parts
