Good day, again.


Can I use for connection through ppp something like this:

pon isp /dev/ttyACM0

where
isp is my /etc/ppp/peers/isp file,
/dev/ttyACM0 - the modem device.

In other words, may I set the modem device name as the command parameter instead of specifying the device in /etc/ppp/peers/isp file - for the multiple ISPs/devices - its multiplication of the /etc/ppp/peers/isp*-dev* files.

Another question is regarding connection enrolling for farther traffic volumes consideration: if I set in pppd options file a log file that can be viewed by usual user - how I can track all the technical connections that belong to single human manual connection? - That is when a user has a connection established - the pppd can make reconnections - all they will belong to the same user's PID. But the PID is not written into that /var/log/pppd.log - as it is in /var/log/messages. No any marks on when the user required to establish the connection - nor to finish it. So, how I can distinguish all the records in /var/log/pppd.log that belong to single user's connection? Please, any ideas.


Thanks for Your time.

PS Please, reply to the list.

Not with pon. I suggest that you write a script that calls pppd
directly. Use the pon script as a starting point.

I suggest that you look at pppstatus.
