Well, you can ask the admin to set a on-connection script to just be like: #!/bin/bash echo $YOUR_IP_ADDR | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] BTW, I have a dial-up connection too - I use KPPP that always shows my current IP address. > Errr... one more thing, it doesn't have qmail installed or neither sendmail > or any other mailserver package. Can bash'es mail command handle it? "mail" command usually needs /usr/sbin/sendmail to work. On my 9.2 machine I have /usr/sbin/sendmail soft-linked to /etc/alternatives/mta so it makes postfix handle things as I guess. Artemio.
