I have freebsd set up so it dials my provider if they drop the line.
I use ppp -alias -ddial pmdemand to start this.
I want to use ml.org to host my ip address and can do this now by doing
mlddup and it works just fine, here is my problem....
how do i get the system to do the mlddup after every subsequent connect
to my provider?

I was thinking of a cron job every 5 or so minutes but that would be too

wasteful....

what i need is a program to initiate the mlddup after a reconnect.


any ideas?

please reply direct, i am not on list...
