A little bit more on my problems with the defaultroute and sppp after
the recent changes:
 - I didn't use ppp(8), I use isdnd(8)
 - my default dial-on-demand interface is isp1
 - my rc.conf contains: defaultrouter=3D"-interface isp1"
 - the interface is down (ifconfig isp1 down) by default and gets turned =
up
   (ifconfig isp1 up) at a login (which didn't triggers a dial out)
 - if I put the interface down the first time after a login I have to
   readd the defaultroute (only once, after additional "ifconfig
   down/up" I didn't have to readd the defaultroute, it stays)

Bye,
Alexander.
