question about ip-up

[Peter Kovacs]

I've got a quick question...

Do the scripts in ip-up.d run whenever the network goes up (say on boot 
with ethernet, or when I dial in) or only when I dial in.  I'm trying to 
make the transition from campus ethernet to dial in over break.

Thanks,
Peter

pppd runs ip-up when a ppp link comes up.  It has nothing to do with
ethernet.

AFAIK they are run by pppd (modem) and ipppd (isdn) whenever the link is set
up.
