You have to start wwwoffle (it will check if online Yes I do. Here is what is done in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/03wwwoffle: # Put wwwoffle in online mode wwwoffle -c ${WWWOFFLE_PROXY} -online # temporary /etc/init.d/wwwoffle restart # Optionally fetch marked pages if grep -qsx fetch ${optfile}; then wwwoffle -c ${WWWOFFLE_PROXY} -fetch & fi The ${WWWOFFLE_PROXY} variable contains the path to the configuration file. > and will go to offline mode if there is no internet connection) and then > run wwwoffle -online when online. If online, wwwoffline when restarted > will automatically start fetching (which is what is happening). Please add > wwwoffle -online > to your /etc/ppp/ip-up.local > and > wwwoffle -offline > to your ip-down.local section. And Here is what stands in /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/99wwwoffle: mode=offline if [ $PPP_IFACE = ippp0 -a -n "`isdnctrl dialmode ippp0 | grep auto`" ]; then mode=autodial; elif [ -n "`ps cax | grep diald`" ]; then mode=autodial; fi wwwoffle -c ${WWWOFFLE_PROXY} -$mode; # We index the cached paged from the last session and merge them # with the big wwwoffle-htdig index. This should be fast.
