Begin3 Title: PPP daemon "/etc/ppp/ip-preup" patch for pppd 2.2.0f Version: 1.0 Entered-date: March 16, 1997 Description: ppp-preup is a patch for pppd 2.2.0f that allows for a script to be executed immediately before a route to the ppp device is added. The primary application of this functionality would be the use of a dummy device to simulate network connectivity for a part-time ppp connection. In such a case, in a certain window of time between the ppp command being started and the route being added, the network address would be inaccessable. This patch reduces that time to a fraction of a second. Really very simple. Comes with instructions.
