Hello folks, I am setting up an automated dial-out PPP connection on a Linux box to be started when one of the PC at local LAN would connect any Internet site. This means the Default Gateway of the local LAN is that Linux box. When a local PC will try to reach any Internet IP box, this PPP connection needs to be initialized with the Internet provider and has to remain open until no trafic detected on that PPP channel for a given period of time. I played with wvdial and works fine. The problem is that I do not find how to automatically start wvdial in daemon mode as well as to tell hime to cancel the PPP connection when NO trafic condition detected. Many thanks for your help.
