A SIGHUP is the signal used when you want a process to restart. Such as:
killall -HUP inetd
would cause inetd to restart (and re-read its /etc/inetd.conf file)
I'm not sure on this but pppd may be giving itself a SIGHUP when the line drops if you have the PERSIST option set, which means that pppd will restart itself and dial again.
I don't have the persist option set in pppd options. This is coming out of the ether, as far as I can tell. This is why I need to find out how to backtrack -where- the signal is coming from.
I doubt very much if a random SIGHUP is being sent from anywhere. I think it comes from pppd itself for whatever reason and I think your line is just dropping... for some unknown reason. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
