Hello all,
Since a while ago, i am having a small problem with user-ppp.
It seems that ppp does not allways correctly pass the MYADDR
variable to the script i call from /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup.
All other variables used in ppp.linkup are passed correctly to
the script.
First of all i thought my ISP was to blame, they have been
changing their ip-numbers (or whatever), but then i took
a closer look at /var/log/ppp.log.
It turns out that ppp correctly negotiates an ip-number and then
calls the script with the variables.
Somehow the MYADDR variable doesn't come through while all the
other variables do...
It also seems to happen randomly and it doesn't depend on the
ISP i use...
So far i have tried:
* changing the order of variables in ppp.linkup
* rewritten my ppp-linkup.sh script, but it's that simple
that it never could be a problem
* tried several things like changing "set ifaddr" and other
options in ppp.conf
* reread the ppp manpage and docs in /usr/share/doc to see
if i missed something
* different ISP's.
Yet i didn't make any progress in solving this problem...
Is any of you experiencing the same thing?
Are my ISP's to blame?
Any ideas are welcome, below you will find all necessary info.
Regards,
Andre.
