Basically, if the line drops then it drops the default route from the routing table and when you next try and use the net instead of it re-dialing you get no route to host errors. I can't find any way to get auto-dialing to work properly. I have to kill ppp and re-start if manually (user-land ppp that is). Killing ppp also has the side-effect of killing the X server. This makes it a real pain to use. On a totally unrelated issue, ftp'ing into freefall drops me in / rather than my home directory using ncftp 2.2.2. -- Paul Richards. Originative Solutions Ltd.
