[PLUG] Running a program after kppp makes a connection


How does one configure kppp to run a program after it connects and the
ppp0 interface is up?  I'm trying to figure out where to put this script
and where to reference it from.  There's a place in the kppp
configuration to put a program that runs after the connection is
established, but I need to be able to not put it there.

What files does kppp use to do its thing?  This script needs to be run
as root (it sets up a VPN interface).  It's for a non-technical user, so
the functionality should be transparent; no extra steps or passwords
after you tell kppp to dial.

Any help is appreciated!  TIA.

Bill
