Correct. Reading it now doesnt make much sense to me either. It was early
in the morning and I tried to get my PPP connection to start using the
default scripts supplied in RH71, once I got that to work it didnt restart
if the connection was broken. So I wrote my on little ppp-watch and it works
now.

I shouldnt have written that mail at that time of day.....

I take your suggestion though and read up on that.....


thanks Jeff.
Jobst


PS: regarding the PPP connection. After the install when it rebooted
    it simply stopped continuing in the scripts, although "-detach"
    was set and "exec" was used. I even read the code and couldnt
    understand why it was stopping script execution at that point.
