if you use it on a notebook and connect to a dhcp server you can use something like this #!/bin/sh ETHIP=`/sbin/ifconfig | grep -A 4 eth0 | awk '/inet/ { print $2 } ' | sed -e s/a ddr://` if [ "$ETHIP" = "" ] then # put your ppp dial script in here fi -- factline Krisper Fabro Harnoncourt OEG (www.factline.com)
