Hi list,
I have also posted this mail to the freebsd-questions list a few days ago, but I had no luck. Hence, I decided to try this list too, which probably is the most appropriate for my problem.
I need to persuade pppd to call its ip-up script in order to add a
non-default route as soon as the link is up and running. Unfortunately
it seems that my ip-up script is not being called. The mode of the file
is rwxr-xr-x and the owner root:wheel. I am calling the pppd from
inside a "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ppp.sh" script by using the following
command:
"/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/cuaa0 115200 A.A.A.A:B.B.B.B noauth persist
netmask 255.255.255.252"
I have read all the chapter #18 of the handbook, but I haven't found
anything about the ip-up script. On the contrary the PPPD(8) man page
claims that the /etc/ppp/ip-up is executed when the link is available
for sending and receiving IP packets. My link becomes available for
sending/receiving IP packets, but ip-up is never executed. Any ideas
why?
By the way, I am using kernel PPP, (on ppp0) if it makes any difference.
Am I doing something wrong?
Did you look at /usr/share/examples/pppd/ip-up.sample ?
ip-up worked for me six months ago.
Yes I have looked at ip-up.sample file. Please note that my problem is not what to put inside the script, but the fact that the script itself is not being called. On the contrary your are saying that it worked for you and thats great news! Was it in the /etc/ppp/ip-up path? What were its file mode? Any other info maybe?
Thanks for the response
