Here is the one I use.  Easily customized.

#!/bin/sh
# script /etc/ppp/ip-up for MiNTOS

DEV=/dev/ttyv8
SOCKET=$1 ; PORT=$2 ; BAUD=$3 ; LOCAL_IP=$4 ; REMOTE_IP=$5
LOCAL_NAME=`nslookup $LOCAL_IP | grep Name | cut -d : -f 2 | tr -d " "`

echo $LOCAL_IP > /var/run/local_ip
echo $LOCAL_NAME > /var/run/local_name
echo "* Interface" $1 "using" $2 "at" $3 "baud is online." > $DEV
echo "  Your IP ("$4") resolves to" $LOCAL_NAME > $DEV
