>Hi all:
>
>I configured my Linx 5.1 box for ppp through the Xwindows configurator. I
can start and stop the ppp session as I want using the enable/disable
command through the network utility window. All the network operations
works fine if I enable my ppp interface.
>
>After a long and hard search finally I found the scripts for ppp in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts . In tah directory there are some ppp
related files called
>
>chat-ppp0
>ifcfg-ppp0
>ifdown-ppp
>ifup-ppp
>
>I'd been trying to use this scripts (because I'm a rookie in Linux) to set
up the diald stuff but my problem is that I do not know wich is the rigth
order for the commands in order to bring the ppp interface up and down
manually.
>
>If someone can help me to bring the ppp interface up and down manually I
will be really appreciated
