[ -e /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 ] && ifup ppp0 I haven't had a chance to look at the rpm yet, but my beef with the original one was that it didn't 'wget -c', so if one download timed out, it would overwrite them all and start again if you reran it. Also, could one now put the actual cab's in contrib as they are? Or on the CDs? Or in PLF. AFAIK this should be legal. As long as the cab's are in the same place as the RPM, one could use 'urpmq --sources' to locate them ...
