I have installed the e-smith-isp rpm so that I can bring the dialup link up and down from the web interface, but I want to prevent diald from reconnecting if the link is lost.

I've tried a number of things including

1) placing -demand in the diald.conf file
2) placing demand=no in /etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-ppp0

Both of these (as I understand it) should prevent demand dialling.  Unfortunatly neither work.  On loss of connection, it redials.

Am I missing something really simple?
