I am using SuSE 10 and have set-up PPPoE to start up automatically. It connects fine, but when the connection get lost, it does not re-connect anymore.

How can I let it re-connect automatically?

Here is a basic script that tests for a disconnection and if down restarts PPPoE. Just add an entry to cron as follows. It checks the PPPoE status every 3 minutes #min hr day month DOW 4-59/3 * * * * /usr/local/bin/PPPoE.sh 2>&1 /dev/null ---------------------------------- PPPoE.sh --------------------------- #!/bin/sh # # Script to check if PPPoE (dsl0) is disconnected & try reconnecting # Graham Smith - 01/02/2004 # # set -x # Checks the status of device dsl0 for disconnection result=$(/usr/bin/cinternet -i dsl0 -s | /usr/bin/grep disconnect) if [ -n "$result" ] then /usr/bin/cinternet -i dsl0 -A #Start the interface. sleep 10 fi --------------------------------------- EOF ---------------------------------- -- Regards, Graham Smith
