Thanks everyone for the cool answers on how to get the dynamic IP my ISP assigns me mailed to myself. I can at least mail the IP manually. I really would like to have this done automatically when I'm away from the machine. Several suggestions came in on using ppp.linkup, which seems the obvious choice. So I followed one guys advice and added this line to my /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup file under the MYADDR: section !bg ifconfig tun0 | mail -s "IP Address" my_mail@my_domain.com This did not work. Can anyone tell me why or suggest something that will? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
