I am using linux slackware installation and connect to the internet
with a ppp dial-up dynamic IP connection. I setup my linux to dial
and reconnect automatically to my ISP everytime the connection drops.
Since my IP address is dynamic, I am using one of those domain
naming service so that I can have my linux computer running at home
and telnet access it at my office with a domain name. On my ppp-on
script, I included a line to execute a file to update my current
IP address at the domain naming service.
The problem I am having is when my internet connection drops and
ppp-on starts to reconnect, it executes inmediately the line to
update my current IP address before ppp have not yet finished
establishing the connection. So, my current IP adddress is not
updated because ppp connection has not been established yet.
Can someone help me with a script or supply me with a script to
detect first when my ppp connection is up and working for then to
execute the line to update my current IP address.
