I think it says in ip-up (the sript, not the directory) that all of the
scripts are run with minimal (or even no) environment. So DISPLAY
probably IS set, but ip-up is run without any of these variables.
The wierdness here is not X or linux in general. It's the way pppd and
ip-up work.
Yes ,
But i found out about needing to set the DISPLAY from a terminal when i tried
to manually
run my script, there was no DISPLAY set at all, so i had to manually set it.
Still seems to me it might be usefull to have it when i fire up x whatever
guess its
juest a matter of adding it

Sure. Put this in your script:
echo Running /etc/ppp/running

HI,
I ran into similar problems fortunately i had had some trouble with junkbuster
( one
way of looking at it grin) and remembered seeing the following in the
/etc/init.d/junkbuster
startup script
su nobody -c command
so i tried this
su myself -c proggy to launch
and found it complained

Pppd runs those scripts with stdout and stderr redirected to /dev/null.

Thanks for responding. But why don't I see the programs running? I

Sure. Put this in your script:

the output of pppd is already stored in your /var/log/syslog.

That will not help him find if his script is running.

My ip-up.d directory is not executed when pppd wakes up. How can I debug
this condition. I have tried putting in simple things like xload in the
directory but they do not get executed. I am able to execute the contents
of the directory if I run ./ip-up file in the /etc/ppp directory but not
when
