Here is a PPP script that will test to see if my ppp connection is up
and if it isn't will kill pppd and restart ppp.
It works for me under freebsd 2.0. I thought someone else may be able to
use it.
Sameer@c2.org helped me with it.
if [ `ping -c 5 decker | grep "packet loss" | awk '{ print $4 }'` -gt 0 ]
then
echo "PPP up"
else
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}
sleep 15
fi
# Bring up ppp
/etc/ppplogin
fi
