A quick and dirty way to do this on Redhat is to add this to
/etc/syslog.conf:
#*.debug /var/log/debug
Remove the (#) when you want full-on debug info, replace it when you
don't. I'm sure there is neater syntax that will limit output to pppd
or whatever, but this will log *LOTS* of stuff so be sure to turn it
off when not in use.
When tinkering with the ppp setup you might want to run `tail -f
/var/log/debug' on the above file to keep a running account of what is
happening.
Stock redhat has no specific log file for ppp stuff, just uses the
system log, so this may not work on a system that has a specif
ppp.log. I think it will though.
