I'm not sure anyone is going to 'write' the script for you. How else are you going to learn to do it? <g> But, I'd look at ifconfig ppp0 and grab the IP from there. Another could be to find it in syslog where pppd puts it's messages. Mine looks something like tail /var/log/syslog <snip> Jun 21 15:56:58 localhost pppd[8577]: local IP address 172.134.194.17 Jun 21 15:56:58 localhost pppd[8577]: remote IP address 63.3.12.1 <rest of output> uummm.... maybe you can find it in /proc somewhere too but I haven't reached that level success just yet.. Maybe someone else can clue us in.. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
