just making sure someone at redhat sees my previous post about this (the
subject line was not too clear...), so here it is:
i changed the following line in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown-ppp
--
pppdpid=`ps aul | awk '$4 ~ /^'"$daemonpid"'$/ {print $3}'`
--
to
--
pppdpid=`ps aulx | awk '$4 ~ /^'"$daemonpid"'$/ {print $3}'`
--
otherwise ps will not report all processes including the ones that are not
link
to a TTY (right?). When running xdm, processes started from tkgoodstuff (and
fvwm?) will not be listed by 'ps -aul' so that starting ppp this way, the
ifdown-ppp will not work unless using 'ps -aulx'
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Regards.
