[squid-users] Squid and backup routes

I have been given the task of configuring our squid proxy server (RH 7.2) to
automatically change over to a dialup line when our ADSL dies (a rare
occurrence, but when it does it is a problem). I am thinking of a cron
script checking for a dead parent line in the cache logs and then opening a
modem connection to ISP which will restore internet access.
 
Has anybody any tried and tested methods??
