That's more or less what I've finally done a few days ago. Actually I was fed up with that [EMAIL PROTECTED] pppd bug, so I added a "-delayipup" script to ppp/ip-up.d, to just execute "sleep 1" before any other script. Guess what: no more DNS update problems (and no problems any more with other scripts too). It now works 100% of time. I'm not sure about it, but there may be no bug at all after all. This may be just another consequence of pppd's "start ip-up scripts ahead of time" bug, because it writes DNS entries at the same time dnsmasq/resolvconf reads them. Sorry for bothering you with this, you can close it. Thanks a lot for your help. -- Hope this helps, Fabien. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
