Hi all,

I'm running FreeBSD 2.1.5
The other day my modem did what can only be described as a phantom dial
out.

I'm not using user ppp rather kermit to connect to a provider and pppd
(on cuaa1) to etsablish my connections.  However, these were inactive at
the time...

How can I determine which process is responsible for the dial ?

Thanx in advance,
David Henshaw
