I just got started with PacBell's ADSL package and am using their Enternet
client to connect since they use PPPOE.  I was just wondering what option
to use so that pppd doesn't disconnect after be idle.  I looked at demand,
persist, and idle but it appears that idle is the only one that would
apply.  I see that you can use demand and persist but I'd rather have the
connection stay up continually.  The only thing I see to do is to set idle
to a really long period.  Is there a better solution?

Thanks, Greg
