I would like to keep my PPP connection "busy" even during the time, when
I don't use it. Otherwise my ISP will log-me-off after a couple of "idle"
minutes.
A work around is to telnet to any Internet sites and start a loop
(in my case in csh):
        % while 1
        > sleep 120
        > date
        > end

This works but I would prefer something more *automatic*, i.e. which
will work without my explicit action.

Does it exist any Debian package which would do the above "line keeping" ?

TIA,
        Zenon
