15 hi

17 I have no idea why it is merged. I did setup a box the other day
18 though, which required isdn4k-utils, so I just unmasked it, and merged
19 it. Worked fine this side.
20
21 Box is up on the net and runnign fine. Only problem I did experienced
22 was that it disconnected every few seconds (had it to manual dial). To
23 fix this, I set the huptimeout to 9999999999 or something similar. You
24 can issue:
25
26 # isdnctrl huptimeout ippp0 999999999
27
28 I am thinking it could be a Driver problem rather than with the
29 isdn-utils, as the German people who did it, seems to use dial on demand
30 mostly ... could be wrong.
