The following is a slightly edited log from a _successful_
call to my ISP

  Apr  5 12:27:03 Gate /kernel: isppp0:

   ipcp input(req-sent): <conf-nak id=0x5 len=10 3-6-c0-c1-c2-b3>
   ipcp nak opts:  address [wantaddr 192.193.194.179] [agree]
   ipcp output <conf-req id=0x7 len=10 3-6-c0-c1-c2-b3>
   ipcp input(req-sent): <conf-req id=0x2 len=10 3-6-c0-c1-c2-f4>

   ipcp parse opt values:  address 0.0.0.1 [ack]  send conf-ack
   ipcp output <conf-ack id=0x2 len=10 3-6-c0-c1-c2-f4>
   ipcp input(ack-sent): <conf-ack id=0x7 len=10 3-6-c0-c1-c2-b3>
   ipcp tlu

If I understand this correctly, my end accepts his proposal to use
hisaddr = 192.193.194.244. However, netstat shows that my end
continues to use hisaddr = 0.0.0.1. I'm worried about sending an
illegal IP address onto the Internet.

Is this behaviour on i4b's part correct ?

If yes, what makes 0.0.0.1 special ? (reserved use in PPP ?)

Thanx for your time,
And : thanx to all involved for the excellent i4b work.
