is it just some users, or all users?  if you create a new user, then dialup
as that user, and don't send anything down that line, do you timeout?

Actually, this is a gateway I'm "talking" about.  As I've mentioned in my original email, it was working fine and then suddenly it won't hang up after 3 minutes of "inactivity" from the LAN.  But I can see that the RD (Receive Data?) LED on the modem lights up intermittently.

if you *don't* timeout, then you could sniff just that session (i like
ethereal, but tcpdump is good too) and see what, if anything, is
going down that ppp connection.

<sigh>  I'll really have to do that, don't I?  Will IPTraf suffice for this, too?
