Problem executing /etc/ppp/ip-up
Authored by: schroeder64 on Sep 15, '02 10:22:05AM

I created the ip-up shell script with execute permission, but pppd is giving me the following error:

Sep 15 09:52:22 pppd[828]: Can't execute /etc/ppp/ip-up: Exec format error

It seemed that it was expecting a binary program instead of script. To test it out I tried to link /bin/ls to /etc/ppp/ip-up, and pppd didn't show an error.

I did this on 10.2.
