Hi all,

If I have multiple PPP devices and a few are already dialled in eg....

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol  
          inet addr:192.168.0.200  P-t-P:192.168.0.2  Mask:255.255.255.255

ppp1      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol  
          inet addr:192.168.0.2  P-t-P:192.168.0.1  Mask:255.255.255.255

How would I route a host that is on device ppp1 if the ifup command that
started it was "ifup ppp4". The problem is that I can't route to device that
changes when it connects.. Today it's on ppp1 but tomorrow if it's the first
ppp to connect then it's on ppp0.

The reason is for the 192.168.0.2 address which conflicts between the 2
connections thanks to the different clients that are on the same subnet.

At the moment, I have to manually do a "route add -host 192.168.0.13/32 dev
ppp2 or ppp0 or ppp3" depending where it connects to..

Any ideas? ppp doesn't return where it puts the connection anywhere does it?


thanks,
