  Same here.

  I use them to launch network monitors (tcpdump, ngrep), telling the MTA
  to deliver the queued messages, launch a ping against the remote IP so that
  it won't disconnect me, and things like that.

  The error, it seems, was that there was no /etc/ppp/options when I was
  trying.  I then created a small one, and after running pppd it started
  executing the scripts correctly.

  Anyways, thanks very much for your time.


Peace,
