The purpose of chat is to dial the phone and login to an account, not calculate your monthly phone bill. :-) > This was under 1.1.5 when I fixed slattach so that it would work with > an expect script. > Some how, slattach was broken when it was brought into 2.0. It may be broken for expect, but it works great with chat as I've had *zero* problems with my connection once I got all of the little quirks figured out. (None of which were chat/slattach related) Bruce's comments may explain some of the behavior with regards to process groups and such. Is it possible that chat ignores SIGHUP and is therefore not succeptible to being killed when slattach drops carrier? Nate
