Why not just use the "asdl.sh restart" command in the script as follows? The script even mails you to let you know there has been a problem.
Cut Here ---------------- #!/bin/sh /sbin/ifconfig | grep ppp0 >/dev/null 2>&1 && ping -c2 -U 213.208.127.99 2>&1 >/dev/null if test $? -eq 1 then /usr/local/share/speedtouch/adsl.sh restart echo "If you are receiving this mail then ADSL has reconnected!" | mail -s "ADSL Autoreconect" [EMAIL PROTECTED] fi Cut Here ---------------- The script I am using is adsl.sh revision 0.2 from Edouard Gomez .Can anybody comment on the effectiveness of using "asdl.sh restart" in the script above and calling this every few minutes from crontab?
