Hello, I have user ppp: Version 0.94 - $Date: 1997/01/14 07:15:44 $
When I dial into my ISP, I authenticate and recieve IP's, tun0 is ifconfig'd
but it will not add the default route. I have to manually add it.
My ppp.linkup hasn't changed since the previous version and stands at:
MYADDR:
add 0 0 HISADDR
In the example it also says that a script can be executed after linkup
so I changed it to:
MYADDR:
add 0 0 HISADDR
! sh -c "/etc/ppp/ppp.linkup.routefix"
Where /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup.routefix is :
netstat -rn | grep tun0 | grep -v default | awk '{print "add default "$1}'| \
xargs route;
echo route fixed > /tmp/routemebaby
Which does not appear to run either.
Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong and offer suggestions for solving
this?
Thanks much!
