Heres the deal - I dial into my ISP, and get allocated a random IP address, ie. I do not have a static IP, and cannot obtain one with my current ISP.
What I would like to do, is on dialing in, pipe my ifconfig ppp0 to a file, and mail that to my work address as follows: ifconfig ppp0 > ipaddy mail -s IP [EMAIL PROTECTED] < ipaddy Doing this, according to my sendmail logs, generates a Data Format Error. Any way I can achieve this using the above approach, or is there a better alternative I am not aware of? Cheers, Corey Popelier http://members.dingoblue.net.au/~pancreas Work Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
