Once this is set as a cron task, how do I force a disconnect? (e.g. if I need to use the phone or simply don't want to wait for the idle time to expire?) I tried shutdown -h now (I was desperate - it was 1am!) and the firewall was shut down before the ppp task!! Is it possible to stop the current connection without killing the cron task itself? - if I want to be able to reconnect later without restarting. -- Neil Williams #-#-#-#-#-#-#-#-# linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx neil@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx neil@xxxxxxxxxxxx www.codehelp.co.uk -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
