Bug Description

Binary package hint: ppp

Hi All

I'm using Ubuntu server 7.04 with a Speedtouch 330 ADSL modem, I can connect and get a working connection and manually run my iptables script but i can not get pppd to run my script located in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ after it brings up my connection on boot.

i have set the file permission of this script to 700 and is owned by root. the script that runs is simple and like say can be run manually from the command line.

Code:

#!/bin/sh

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables-restore < /etc/network/iptables.up.rules

Aim i missing something hear. The man pages say this is the right place, and i think the other scripts in the ip-up.d directory are being executed, namely 0000usepeerdns 0dns-up or i would not get my DNS server address in resolv.conf

i done some searching and found an example iptables script distributed from the debian site http://ftp.debian.org/doc/iptables/examples/3iptables-ppp_ip-rules which usally lives @ /usr/share/doc/iptables/examples/3iptables-ppp_up-rules.gz this dose not seem to be invcluded in unbunu ppp package but if i place it in ip-up.d anyway and jig the iptables to suit me and run pppd still no go, the permissions are the same as 0000usepeerdns etc

Can anyone help

Thanks Tom

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 beta?

This problem is most definitely occurring in 8.10 - I am seeing it on a system I administer.
