Generate another script(s) that accounts for the states that ppp0 will be in (up or down). Then with the scripts /etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/ppp/ip-down you can change the state of your ipchains ruleset and also your routing table to accomodate those different states. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
