Howdy folks, I installed diald a few days ago, and I've noticed a possible problem. As you can see, from the logs below, pppd is shutting down the link (based on the idle-disconnect, that I'd specified in the options file. At first, I thought that diald didn't know this, and was interpreting the closure of the connection as a failure. However, I have the two-way option specified, in diald.conf, and yet the connection restarted almost immediately. I attempted to fix this, by removing the idle-disconnect, and telling my ISP to drop the line, after 30 seconds idle time. Again, diald decided to restart the connection. (the line dropped immediately, which I've seen frequently - this could be a problem with my ISP who do have the occasional problems, but this is happening quite frequently, and I suspect it may be a diald problem. So, my question is this: is the two-way option working properly here?? am I mis-interpreting its intended use?
