PPP-Links transmits every 10 seconds a Keepalive packet, in FreeBSD 3.x
release distributions is the available fix no done !

Fixed for FreeBSD 3.1 & 3.2, 3.3 not tested yet.

Configure i4b to a idle-timeout larger the 10 seconds, connect to your provider,
i4b does not disconnect the call.

This fix is part of the  i4b distribution since 05/99 and has not been 
integrated into i4b because of a drawback in the very first connection 
handling when thisis patch was applied. 
According to some testers from the i4b development this patch in its 
current form is not the right way to solve the problem.

This fix is part of the i4b distribution as /contrib/lcp-patch2.tar.uu. The 
README supplied with this patch says: 
KNOWN BUGS: 
* Initial idle time upon reboot is always very, very, very large.  
Everything is OK, after the first packet is sent.  But this causes 
a rough start. 
* Doesn't not yet work with shorthold mode.  (I didn't get around to 
it.) 

* Works only with FreeBSD-3.0 and higher (kernel variable time_seconds) 

* others (???) 

Because of this bugs this patch solves a problem by introducing at least two 
new bugs. This is IMHO not acceptable and i wovill not apply this patch  
until the known bugs are removed from this patch.
