ppp-watch - daemon to make PPP interfaces act more like
other interfaces
SYNOPSIS
ppp-watch interface-name interface-name [boot]
DESCRIPTION
ppp-watch manages one PPP connection, including starting,
stopping, and redialing. It makes starting and stopping
the connection synchronous activities.
ppp-watch is not really meant to be called directly. It
should only be used from within the ifup-ppp script.
OPTIONS
interface-name
The name of the PPP interface to bring up.
boot ppp-watch is being called at boot time and should
time out after a while if the PPP connection does
not come up in order not to hang the boot sequence.
