8 I am not sure I understand ? what depend line in net.ppp ?
9 where did you get this script/with what package does it come?
10
11 I also use ppp, but when I stop it, only it stops, and not
12 all the rest. I will do some testing to verify this, but for
13 now try not to add net.ppp0 to a runlevel.
14
15 In general, if a net.* service is added to the default
16 runlevel, the behaviour will be that it will be included in
17 the 'net' dependancy, this, if you stop it, everything
18 depending on 'net' will stop.
19
20 Like I said, if you want to stop a net.* service, and not
21 stop the services depending on 'net', dont add that net.*
22 service to a runlevel.
23
24 We could probably devise a hack for this, but currently I do
25 not see a need for this. Just add
26
27 /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 start
28
29 to /etc/init.d/local, and you should be set if you want it
30 to start at boot.
31
32 What do you think Daniel?
