How to script PPPOE reconnect

Hello,

I'm looking for a possibility to script a PPPOE reconnect from CLI - eth0 down and up doesn't do the trick - any chance for doing this?

Cheers!

Thats easy. As SU simply type

killall pppd-pppoe

It reconnects automatically one or two seconds later.

EDIT: Just open the pppoe live log and you can see the process when you enter the command :-)

Cheers mate! That was what i was looking for [:)]
Actually a "sudo killall -2 pppd-pppoe" (SIGINT) does it also.
