Killall ppp  followed by ppp -ddial xxxxxxx

Where xxxxxxx is the section header name in the ppp.conf you want to
exec.

User ppp always reads the default: section name, just add other
section names containing your different values.

Subject: PPP Question - should be easy...

Hi all,

I was just wondering, I run ppp from rc.conf with -ddial, and it is
working brilliantly. However,
I need to change ppp configurations quite frequently, is there a
quick way to tell ppp to reload
the configuration without killing it?

I am specifically looking to change values in the label that is run
from rc.conf with -ddial...
I'm hoping in some way that I can send ppp a -HUP and it will use
the new values when the ppp
process reconnects automatically in -ddial mode.

Thanks for your time, and I look forward to some possible answers.

Regards,
Chris.
