I've noticed that creating a file each time I run pon and deleting it each time I run poff or echoing some information when one of those is issued doesn't always help: whatever information I want to retrieve, I don't know the pppd's exit status. For example, if I try to connect and I get a busy-signal, I'll never notice since poff will never be called and no information will be logged that way. (Well, of course _I_ will notice, but not a program depending on that information). So I was wondering how to catch that exit code. would this help or should I look for something else? I thought I could start writing information to a file as soon as I'd find out about pppd's status: if it got a busy-signal or anything else, no information would be written to the file. Can I do it in a script?
