Circa Wed. Oct. 16, 2002 at 21:17:41 -0500, a lone cry was heard from dproc@dol.net in the wasteland called the Internet:
And you should find a script to make just this patch (in SuSE 7.3 it is to ip-up not ip-up.local) somewhere in the firewall2 rpm.
Or just stick this in the appropriate place in your ip-up: # call ip-up.local if it exists and is executable: test -x /etc/ppp/ip-up.local && /etc/ppp/ip-up.local "$@" This way you can keep the commands that you have added locally separate from the main ip-up script. You might also consider adding: # call ip-down.local if it exists and is executable: test -x /etc/ppp/ip-down.local && /etc/ppp/ip-down.local "$@" to ip-down if it is a separate file or to the appropriate place in ip-up if ip-down is symlinked to it.
