Well... it's a long time I looked into the details of linesrv 2.1 the
last time. But as far as I remember I din't implement any redialing
features in linesrv (has anyone an other opinion?).
In other words, that what you desire is the normal behaviour of
linesrv. Maybe you're using isdn and didn't turn off some automatic
dialing feature...

I'm sorry about your 100 EUR, but in my point of view it's not
directly related to linesrv.
- have a look at the sourcecode of linesrv to convince me about
  its redailing features
- dig into your up/down scripts and perhaps deeper to find the
  redailing troll.

Furthermore: please don't ask any questions here without providing
full information about your setup:
