ip-up script
Authored by: capmikee on Aug 08, '04 11:30:30AM

I noticed in /tmp/ppp.log the following line after disconnecting from the menu bar:

Sun Aug 8 11:33:10 2004 : Terminating on signal 15.

Signal 15 is the TERM signal, not the HUP signal. I don't know if it makes much difference, but that's how the system does it.

Not being an awk user, I would use backticks instead:

kill -TERM `cat /var/run/ppp0.pid`

Remember, those are backticks, not apostrophes.
