The following lines(##35-39) in /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 don't work because runscript.sh removes the link before stop() in net.ppp0 is executed: # Do our own cleanup if [ -L ${svcdir}/started/net.${IFACE} ] then rm -f ${svcdir}/started/net.${IFACE} fi But runscript.sh later restores the link. This is inconvenient because it is impossible to restore a lost connection without removing the ${svcdir}/started/net.ppp0 link by hand. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1./etc/init.d/net.ppp0 start 2.Break connection (e.g., unplug phone line from modem for a few seconds) 3.Try to reconnect with /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 start/stop Actual Results: /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 stop: ppp0 not up /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 start ppp0 already up Expected Results: Would be good if "/etc/init.d/net.ppp0" stop would remove the link so the /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 start can restore the connection. Better if "/etc/init.d/net.ppp0" start checks that link is broken and restores connection.

Yes, this works for me.
