>Description:
On a non-flat rate connected machine, I want to specify explicitly
when connections are made.
isdnd has two ways of working right now:
with and without link1 set on ippp0.
When link1 is set, isdnd does not automatically open a connection
when it's started; however, any network connectivity does, e.g.
starting the Xserver usually opens one (because of the name lookup).
[Yes, I could set up a caching nameserver, but that's not the point
here.]
When link1 is not set, isdnd _always_ makes a call when it starts up.
I'd like a middle ground, where isdnd only makes a call when someone
specifies the ippp0 interface as "up".
>How-To-Repeat:
See above.
>Fix:
Workaround:
isdnd=NO in /etc/rc.conf
link1 not set in ippp0 flags.
Open network connection:
/etc/rc.d/isdnd forcestart
Close network connection:
ifconfig ippp0 down
/etc/rc.d/isdnd forcestop
The ifconfig down is not necessary, but see bin/30298 why it's useful.
