Please help. First I should mention that I'm using 2.2.19 version of kernel. Use pon command to dial out.
I have problems with pppd daemon configured in /etc/ppp/options as follows asyncmap 0 crtscts lock modem netmask 255.255.255.0 noipdefault -vj lcp-echo-interval 30 <---- 1) disabled still produce 10 second EchoReq it is actualy received not sent. lcp-echo-failure 4 2) But following excerpt from log file shows that bouth 10 sec and 30 sec intervals are active noipx idle 3600 <---- thou set to 1 hour always cuts conection usualy 15 to 30 minutes after start of it despite active conection. If I'm using Lynx and on second tty line getting my mail run, run is disconected in middle of it and has to be repeated.

Possible cause here is that I'm using Lynx which caches pages so that moving through them backwards actualy doesn't download new packets. According to manual page conection inactive is considered as no presence of data packets ie. IP packets. But why program count time from begining of conection and not last packet received? To me idle 3600 means line was idle 1 hour, which it was not if packets are sent and received. Loking on time data in above log echo is active at 47 57 07 17 27 37 ie. 10sec interval. Then there is another thread setup from config lcp-echo-interval 30 above 10 and 40. Instead of reducing nonsense in my log it has increased. Is there a way to dissable this reporting apart from modifying and recompiling sources? Or is it bug which should be reported ? Anyone noticed this behavor or knows cure? As the only user I dont bother to setup user specific configuration ie. in user home directory but set up as root global ones to suit me as user. So there is no possibility that /etc/ppp/options are somewhere overrided. Still, I have checked and found none.
