Dear Brian and Hackers,
Please find updated proposed version of the patch. As suggested by
Warner option has been renamed to 'force-sripts' and now works for
both 'direct' and 'dedicated' modes. Also as suggested by Terry the
man page has been updated to document side effect of 'direct'.
-direct
This is used for receiving incoming connections. ppp ignores the
``set device'' line and uses descriptor 0 as the link. ppp will
never use any configured chat scripts unless ``force-scripts''
option has been enabled.
If callback is configured, ppp will use the ``set device'' infor-
mation when dialing back.
-dedicated
This option is designed for machines connected with a dedicated
wire. ppp will always keep the device open and will never use
any configured chat scripts unless ``force-scripts'' option has
been enabled.
force-scripts
Default: Disabled. Forces execution of the configured chat
scripts in direct and dedicated modes.
Please find attached patch that adds new option to the PPP.
run-scripts-in-direct-mode
Default: Disabled. This allows to run chat scripts in
direct mode.
did i miss anything? objections? comments? reviews?
First comment: run it past Brian Somers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; it's
his baby, and he's the active maintainer.
I have sent him e-mail.
Rest of comments:
Actually, why doesn't "-direct" allow a chat script by default?
The man page doesn't document that as a side-effect of "-direct",
only of "-dedicated", but it's been there since the import.
Should this really be a "negotiate" section command, rather than
just a command or a "set" command?
Also, there are only two other commands even have a "-" in them,
and both of them only have one (just seems a little long, compared
to, say, "rsid" or "direct-with-script", or even "force-script").
Personal preference: don't make it conditional on "-direct", let
it also work with "-dedicated", and call it "force-script" or
something, instead.
done
The man page should be updated -- including the undocumented
side-effect of "-direct" disabling scripts).
done
thanks
max
