TCP/IP 5.0 - dial on demand documentation

Hi,

where we can find new pppd manual page and dial on demand description ?

I try with man from linux but QNX pppd don’t “ip-filter” options which
trigger demand options.
So can you post some examples configurations ??

Thanks,
Ernest Simunic

$ use pppd
:
:
demand
Initiate the link only on demand. With this option, the remote
IP address must be specified. This option also implies the
persist option.

idle
Disconnect if the link is idle for seconds.

So:

pppd /dev/ser1 11.1:11.2 demand idle 60

-xtang

Ok, butt what is with connect options…

I use chat for dial number and connect.

I try this:

pppd /dev/serx 192.168.0.1:192.168.0.2 demand idle 60 call site user username

in /etc/ppp/peers/site

connect ’ sleep 3; /usr/ucb/chat path_to_chat_script’


When I try telnet to 192.168.0.2 or add default route to ppp link pppd don’t
invoke connect program.


Is there someone who try this with success results ?
Thanks!
