isp-connect project is a set of scripts which should make it easy to connect from a single GNU/Linux workstation to an ISP using a dial-up connection.

It supports a single PPP connection over ISDN or modem, and support is planned for raw-IP (over ISDN) and hooking up to several providers at one time.

The package comes with the helper script schedule.pl, which is a kind of an offline cron.

It gets a crontab-like file as input and executes the commands given in the file not exactly at the times given (like cron), but only when it is executed itself (of course, because it is not a daemon) and the time in the config-file has passed.

What's New in This Release:
Modem support
Signal, when line goes up or down
Disconnect can close all active connections
