Question about Cron

OK.

I own a WL500gp, with WL500gp-1.9.2.7-d-r599.trx

I want to send to myself an email with the router IP after each login to PPPoE (login automaticaly or manualy).

I put that "command" to /tmp/local/sbin/post-firewall, but maybe there is a better solution.

?? Which command?
Well, what do you expect? I guess there is nobody who want to do everything for you.

So you have to use the search function, install what you need and write your own script.

I would suggest to install at first according wengis howto - further I can help you a bit with scripting, but you must determine the needed software and manuals and how you want to do the things.

Have a look at this list - all this is available for your router.
http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/op...table/Packages

for instance: esmtp could be useful......

have fun

Thank you for nothing :mad:

I love this forum, a lot of questions whitout answers...

For your information I used search function, I tryed to do it myself but I need some help.

I have a solution that is working, but maybe there is a better solution.

Maybe somebody else can help me, or not :D

The question is:
If I want to execute a script every time the router establishes a connection (PPPoE) automaticaly or manualy, where must I put this script?

If somebody can / want to help I say THANK YOU.

:D

Well, just do a

Code:

---

echo $PATH

---

those are the places where you can store the script....on any linux....
be aware, when storing the script into routers flash, you must store the path to your script too: (for example)

Code:

---

echo /usr/sbin/yourscript >> /tmp/local/.files
chmod 755 /usr/sbin/yourscript
flashfs save
flashfs commit
flashfs enable
reboot

---

When storing to /opt/sbin or opt/bin just store your script, nothing else is needed.

Do not forget to make your script executeable:
[

Code:

---

chmod 755 /where_your_script_is/name_of_script

---

Thats it!
As you already have a working solution and it seems that you know already linux, it should not be a big deal. :D

Further, you can store your script anywhere, just make script executeable and use full path when calling your script.
Would be nice to let us know, how you got your solution working...:o

In case that nothing is installed according wengis howto or similar , it will be a hard task.:eek:

Have fun.....

OK, but where is the ...

Normally you would name the script ip-up and place it in /etc/ppp

There is a /tmp/ppp/ip-up (and ip-down) = symlink to /sbin/rc


AND you mean I must create a new subdirectory ppp in directory etc, with ip-up inside?

/etc/ppp/ip-up = /tmp/etc/ppp/ip-up

THANK YOU
:D

And to help some more here is what I use to send a email.
