-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I've been using pppd on my 5.2 system. I setup a script to run ntpdate and a couple of oher things when I connect to my ISP in /etc/ppp/auth-up, but it doesn't appear to run. Just in case it was a timing problem I added a sleep 20 line, but that doesn't make any difference. A listing of the file looks like:
- -- -rwxr-xr-- 1 root wheel 265 May 21 17:30 auth-up and it's contens are: #!/bin/sh #Perform these actions whenever ppp connects /bin/sleep 20 #Synchronise to network time /usr/sbin/ntpdate augean.eleceng.adelaide.edu.au #Keep synchronised while online /usr/sbin/ntpd #Update the port vunerability database /usr/local/bin/portaudit -F ntpd never runs and there are no entries in /var/log/messages to show ntpdate being run either. Does auth-up work for anyone else? Are my file permissions wrong perhaps? The sript runs correctly if I run it as root. Cheers, Ian GPG Key: http://homepages.picknowl.com.au/imoore/imoore.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFArbxRfITqkXhImmIRAulhAJ9Rd9Oj5rbLDoZHctRbPilI8VoEVgCgkD0H m+R2f+gX8n7QvNd0rO7OHcM= =05hM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
