I seriously doubt you'll be able to get dhcp client to work that way unless=
=20
you apply some really ugly hacks to it. :) ppp uses IPCP. See link for=20

Nobody on this list can really guess very well at what your setup is. If=20
you're looking for more specific advice, we need something to work with.
Is this PPOE? Dial-up? Do the logs show anything? What does your ppp.conf=
=20
look like? When you ppp manually and connect, are you able to get a=20
renegotiation with 'add! default HISADDR'? (I'm pretty sure it's a '!' for=
a=20
forced renegotiation if_exist, anyway). =20
I've had my share of brain-dead ISP "techs" too. If it's not on the=20
