Maybe the fetchmail maintainer You can call /etc/init.d/fetchmail start, /etc/init.d/fetchmail stop and /etc/init.d/fetchmail awaken from the ip-* scripts if you want (in the default config for a root fetchmail daemon, that is). > intended it for simple ppp devices that get deleted when the ppp link > goes down. Of course this does not work for me, since my IPPP device Yes. Although the new ip-up script will start fetchmail if it is not there (or awaken one that is lurking around in the background), and will NOT stop/kill fetchmail on ip-down by default. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
