adsl-connect

ADSL-CONNECT(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   ADSL-CONNECT(8)

NAME

       adsl-connect - Shell script to manage a PPPoE link

SYNOPSIS

       adsl-connect [config_file]

       adsl-connect interface user [config_file]

DESCRIPTION

       adsl-connect  is  a  shell  script  which  manages  an ADSL connection using the Roaring Penguin user-space PPPoE client.  If you omit con-
       fig_file, the default file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 is used.  If you supply interface and user,  then  they  override  the
       Ethernet interface and user-name settings in the configuration file.

       Note that normally, you should not invoke adsl-connect directly.  Instead, use adsl-start to bring up the ADSL connection.

       adsl-connect first reads a configuration file.  It then brings up a PPPoE connection.  If the connection ever drops, a message is logged to
       syslog, and adsl-connect re-establishes the connection.	In addition, each time the connection is dropped or cannot be  established,  adsl-
       connect executes the script /etc/ppp/adsl-lost if it exists and is executable.

       The shell script adsl-stop causes adsl-connect to break out of its loop, bring the connection down, and exit.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

       adsl-connect uses the following shell variables from the configuration file:

       ETH    The Ethernet interface connected to the ADSL modem (for example, eth0).

       USER   The ADSL user-id (for example, b1xxnxnx@sympatico.ca).

       PIDFILE
	      A  file in which to write the process-ID of the adsl-connect process (for example, /var/run/pppoe.pid).  Two additional files ($PID-
	      FILE.pppd and $PIDFILE.pppoe) hold the process-ID's of the pppd and pppoe processes, respectively.

       By using different configuration files with different PIDFILE settings, you can manage multiple PPPoE connections.  Just specify  the  con-
       figuration file as an argument to adsl-start and adsl-stop.
