I'm having trouble with ppp.  I boot up 'ppp -auto $isp' in one of my rc
scripts but, the daemon keeps dying about every 3rd or 4th time it connects
to my ISP.  I can't count on it to be there when I want to connect up to
the internet.  There are no messages in the log file to indicate any trouble.
Has anyone any ideas on what might be happening?

many thanks
