| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | connecting to a host immediately in the foreground. I would like to be able to run ppp from a script so that my script can be sure that it is connected to the 'net before it continues running: # Dial up the internet. ppp -background myprovider || exit 1 do-some-net-command # Hang up the modem. kill -HUP `cat /var/run/ppp.tun0.pid` Another problem is that the current ppp calls its process id file `/var/run/PPP.server', which may conflict if you have more than one IP tunnel interface available.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | add some logging functionality which I find very useful. 'set debug link' will record just link up/down and address assignments. 'set debug connect' will record the entire chat dialog 'set debug carrier' will record just chat lines including 'CARRIER' (so that I can be sure I'm getting a 28.8 line). There was a global change required to permit LogPrintf to take a bit mask instead of a bit position value (to permit logging some events on either of two flags, so that no change in 'set debug lcp' would result from the code supporting 'link'. Thus the diffs are rather long for such a small change. The man page is also touched. Oh, and there was a slight syntax problem in route.c Reviewed by: phk Submitted by: Tony Kimball <alk@Think.COM>

* 1. Add a settable redial timer and logging of the process id in a file.amurai1995-10-081-8/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A settable redial timer helps to avoid the problem where both ends of a link want to dial at the same time and the line winds up busy for both ends. The process id is logged in /var/run/PPP.system where system is the name of the called system. When both ends of a link are running in demand dial mode, you need an easy way to get the pid of the ppp on the called end so it can be killed and re-started with -direct or pppd started to handle the incoming ppp session. 2.
