I'm trying to configure iijppp for -auto mode. It seems that some timeout is just a little too short. If I start ppp and then try to check mail from netscape, netscape times out waiting for the modem to dial. If I then try to check the mail again, it works fine since the connection is established by this time. It's not just netscape that acts this way. FTP and telnet do the same. I would like applications to wait just a little bit longer before giving up. Is there a setting somewhere for this timeout?
