ABOUT THIS DIRECTORY
---------------------

This directory holds all the scripts, which should be executed, after
the link is established/shut down. They are called (indirectly) by 

/etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/ppp/ip-down

If you want a service to be started/stoped, make a link in 

/etc/ppp/rc/start and /etc/ppp/rc/stop

pointing to this service(script). Be sure always to use ABSOLUTE 
pathnames !

Every Script takes the parameters start and stop
