/etc/ppp/ip-up:
#!/bin/sh
# pppd calls this file when TCP/IP comes up.  It supplies parameters:
# interface-name tty-device speed local-ip-address remote-ip-address
/etc/ppp/arp -d 167.195.160.115
# remove ppp's Ethernet hardware type
/etc/ppp/arp -t tr -s 167.195.160.115 00:60:8C:24:A2:BD pub
# add "by hand"

# Use your own IP addresses and hardware addresses, please!
# you can get your own hardware address ##:##:## from ifconfig's output
exit

/etc/ppp/ip-down:
# called by pppd when ip goes down.  Same parameters supplied as ip-up.
# For some reason, with ip-up kludge, gateway daemon needs to be restarted
# when the link goes down...
/sbin/gdc restart
