I've got the following command in my ppp.linkup file: !bg echo MYADDR | mail dyndns@blah.blah The intent is to mail my current IP to him every time ppp connects (I use ppp -ddial), but it isn't sending anything. I'm at a loss to know if it isn't the proper command or if the ppp.linkup isn't running. Any suggestions most appreciated! -James To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
