Hi there,

Please could one of you help with my *little* problem.  I am trying to get
the following command to execute when my ppp link comes up. 

'fetchmail -f /etc/ppp/.fetchmailrc'

I have tried adding this to the ppp.linkup file in /etc/ppp, but for some
reason it just doesn't work....I have also tried to prefix this with both
'!bg "' and also "!sh -c", but neither of them worked.

I am using FreeBSD 3.1

Any help as to the syntax would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Marc
