hi all !
i am using a alcatel 1000 adsl modem on my mandrake 7.1 linux box.
i build up my connection over pptp.
no problems establishing connection, but after an unpredictable amount of
time my connection drops.
it doesnt always happen, sometimes my machine is 3 h online, sometimes its
only 1h.
when i look at system console there are no error messages, it just seems
that the connection was shut down properly (without me causing it)
it just says :
pppd : LCP terminated by peer
connection terminated
connect time blah blah
sent ...........bytes, received ......bytes
exit
i understand that the connection was dropped by my isp´s server but i dont
know why; i know for sure that there are no "server side" connection
timeouts from my isp.
is there an option somewhere for the pppd that configures an idle timeout ?
and what is this LCP thingy ?
thx in advance,
--quay
