Thanks for the advice. I put in the changes, though they haven't done anything for the "SIOCAIFADDR" or "wrong ifa" problems, worse luck. Do you -- or does anyone -- happen to know the exact setup to use with iij-ppp where addresses on both side are dynamically assigned? (This must be quite common, I would have thought.) Everything always works OK for the first session. But unfortunately neither 'route delete' nor 'route flush' set everything back to the same state as before a connection was made. -- Robert Nordier
