Hello,

I have a little problem which has already caused trouble to me.
When my machine boots it runs 
ipf -f /etc/ipf.rules
These rules allow packets coming from tun0 to get state (my
home machine is at the other end of the line).
However ppp has still not been fired, so the next time i connect
with ppp i can get at the machine but not from here surf the web.
Running 
ipf -Fa -f/etc/ipf.rules
fixes the problem, but is highly unpractical.

So it seems that ipf applies rules only for the configured interfaces.
Do you think that putting
! ipf -y
in /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup
would solve the problem?

Of course i can try but risk been locked out!
