I'm using the same 10yr-old ppp-script as for my dial-up modem on this wireless-modem [by: ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/modem] And it used to <cut off ppp> when I disconnected the USB to the wireless-modem; as I wanted. Something happened [when I had a crash and changes to my old distro]. Now ppp won't die; nor by `kill -9 <ppp-pid>`. And pppd won't reconnect without a re-boot. Apparently pppd wants to be able to REpeatedly go on-line automatically once it's started. How can I get the previous/old control, that ppd went off-line when I disconnected, but was able to go back on-line when I re-connected and called the script? == TIA.

Regards > Adam Przybyla Good, thanks: after adding `demand nopersist` I'm now able to `killall pppd`. Which previously did NOT kill pppd. And then I'm now able to pull-out the USB-line. Which previously gave <kernel errors /problems> on this knl 2.4*, since my knl 2.6* has crashed. I don't trust the system/s. Going on line, is like a rocket-launch or a taxi-journey: when it's finished, I must disconnect. == Chris Glur.
