Sorry, small bug in the Xnet doc




I am the author of Xnet, a GTK/Gnome application monitoring a PPP comm 
for Linux.

I've discovered in little mistake in the documentation, which makes
Xnet not display the IP adress on the PPP interface.

In the /etc/ppp/ip-up system script, the doc says to add a line to
call the xnet-up script. But what is not said is that you should give
to xnet-up all the arguments received by ip-up. So, assuming that xnet 
is installed in /usr/local/xnet, you should have the following in
/etc/ppp/ip-up:

...
/usr/local/xnet/xnet-up $*
...

This way, xnet will be able to display on its window the IP address of
your host when connected on the net through PPP.
