Hi,
I've been using pppd on my 5.2 system. I setup a script to run ntpdate and =
a=20
couple of oher things when I connect to my ISP in /etc/ppp/auth-up, but it=
=20
doesn't appear to run.
Just in case it was a timing problem I added a sleep 20 line, but that does=
n't=20
make any difference.
A listing of the file looks like:

=2D -- -rwxr-xr--  1 root  wheel   265 May 21 17:30 auth-up
and it's contens are:
#!/bin/sh
#Perform these actions whenever ppp connects
/bin/sleep 20
#Synchronise to network time
/usr/sbin/ntpdate augean.eleceng.adelaide.edu.au
#Keep synchronised while online
/usr/sbin/ntpd

#Update the port vunerability database
/usr/local/bin/portaudit -F

ntpd never runs and there are no entries in /var/log/messages to show ntpda=
te=20
being run either.
Does auth-up work for anyone else? Are my file permissions wrong perhaps?
The sript runs correctly if I run it as root.

Cheers,
Ian
