My machine reboots when i attempt several kermit / ppp connections.
I use the following script (borrowed from FAQS);
#!/bin/sh
ps ax |grep pppd |grep -v grep
pid=`ps ax |grep pppd |grep -v grep|awk '{print $1;}'`
if [ "X${pid}" != "X" ] ; then
echo 'killing pppd, PID=' ${pid}
kill ${pid}
fi
ps ax |grep kermit |grep -v grep
pid=`ps ax |grep kermit |grep -v grep|awk '{print $1;}'`
if [ "X${pid}" != "X" ] ; then
echo 'killing kermit, PID=' ${pid}
kill ${pid}
fi
ifconfig ppp0 down
ifconfig ppp0 delete
kermit -y /usr/home/bob/kermit.dial
If I use the above to connect more than once, My machine reboots
upon starting a new pppd. I suspect it may be kermit related in
that my system does not like the fact that I kill a suspended (z)
kermit process. Help?
