Re: automagic ftp sessions?
Michael,
Thanks for the script. I modified it slightly and now it posts
my dynamic ip address where friends can look it up. It runs in
ip-up.d. Then, ip-down.d puts "i'm offline" in the same file.
Works like a charm...yesterday a friend in NY was browsing my
web server! I just setup a shell account and told him to try
telnet next time.
Bye the way, this friend is a MAC user, but is the first person
to tell me about linux (about 1 1/2 years ago). Now I'm trying
to convert _him_.
Thanks again,
--David
