Folks- Can anyone give advice on PPP with the -auto switch? I've got it running, but it has a habbit of working in a strange way. When it first starts, before anyone tries to connect to an external host, when people log in, or make a new shell (tcsh) (even in X windows), it does not try to make a connection to my ppp provider. However, after it has made a connection, and closed it due to a timeout... for everyone but root, when a new shell (tcsh) is started, it automatically opens up the ppp connection... there is no networking commands in the .cshrc or .login files. (In fact, the .cshrc and .login are the default ones created by the adduser command) Has anyone seen this? Does anyone have any ideas? -- Virtually, Edward Wolpert ------------------------------- "The best way out is always wolperte@knox.pcec.philips.com | through." - Robert Frost wolpert@utk.edu | =============================== 'Give me a shell, and I'll Truth is what you believe. | give you the world.'
