by I was dinking around the other day, had two modems hooked up, and dialed
two different ISP's. The first one (of course) was assigned as ppp0 and
the second as ppp1. I started them up as different users, thinking that
one would be 'assigned' the user that started it. The plan was to check
mail, etc. from the two different hosts, without all the dinking around
reseting Netscape to access the different ISP's. BTW, it didn't work
that way :<( That all seems fine and dandy, I (unfortunatly) didn't
check to see what addresses were assigned, but anyway, when I took ppp0
down, then ppp1, then cranked 'em back up, now I get ppp1 and ppp2. I
can't find any lock files (anyway the script is supposed to delete
'stale' locks) but ppp0 will not come back up. I know this is not a huge
problem, but 'inquiring minds wanna know'. Can any one explain this
behavior?
