Disregard my request for help below.. I found a fix.. :^).
Hal..
Meanwhile maybe I can ask for more help with the scheme now
being used in two parts; bash script follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# /usr/local/sbin/postmail (script to sendmail via kvinet.com..
# Disable ppp.adsl
/bin/rm /etc/ppp
# Setup to use dialup modem
/bin/ln -s /etc/ppp.dial /etc/ppp
# Run ppp for DialUp
/usr/sbin/ppp-go
# need a waitfor here :
# "NO CARRIER Local: 146.82.214.57 -> Remote: 10.1.4.1 ppp0"
# Needs a new line after that before invoking sendmail....
# The 146.x.x.x may be different considering dhcp.
#One of my many trys to make it one script, all failing..
if grep Local:
then /bin/echo -e ""
fi
# Invoking postmail1, thence hitting enter and invoking postmail2, does
# the trick...
#
# TEMPORARY: The above, before the if, is postmail1 and the below is
# postmail2..
#
# Sending mail via kvinet.com relay. See /etc/mail/submit.cf DS
# Need to check to see if any outgoing mail in queue..
# Not really necessary as it'll exit gracefully with no mail in the queue..
# Running sendmail 8.13.3, secure, as user smmsp - /var/spool/clientmqueue.
/usr/sbin/sendmail -q -v -Ac
# Stop ppp Dialup
/usr/sbin/ppp-off
# Disable ppp.dial
/bin/rm /etc/ppp
# Setup to use ADSL Modem
/bin/ln -s /etc/ppp.adsl /etc/ppp
echo " Back to ADSL StandBy."
