losing ppp0 connection

[Marty Landman]

Every now and then I seem to have a problem with my ppp0 connection. It 
connects, works a brief time, goes away, reconnects, goes away...

Here's what showed up on my /var/log/messages just now when it happened again:


Jan  6 18:51:37 BANYAN wvdial[9298]: ATDT339-0138

I notice the SIGHUP received at 18:53:39, but how do I figure out who sent it?
