Rename /etc/ppp/no_ppp_on_boot to /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot . Ppp will then come up when you boot. > I also want to be able to detect if the line has gone down and re-connect > in that event. Add 'persist' to /etc/ppp/peers/provider . Pppd will then attempt to recconnect when the link goes down. > Where do I put the fetchmail-up script to make this happen properly? If it is in ip-up.d it will get run whenever ppp comes up regardless of why. -- John Hasler This posting is in the public domain. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Do with it what you will.
