Thinking of switching from pppd to iijppp (so that the clients who access
the net via the socks5 proxy on my machine) can cause PPP to demand dial
[or is there another way other than iijppp ?]

My ISP has many terminal servers that I can connect to via the hunt,
with pppd I can leave both IP addresses (local/remote unspecified),
according to the iijppp man page, I can only specify the local end as 0
(dynamic). 

I'm unsure of my ISP's config, what will occur if I specify an address
other than that of the terminal server I connect to, or is the remote
address is iijppp something other than that of the terminal server ?
