The problem is that when ppp is *not* in -auto mode, it doesn't bother configuring the interface until it's actually agreed an IP number with the peer. The ``add'' line is actioned immediately, and fails. So, your config is fine for -auto mode, but it's better to have the ``add'' in ppp.linkup for any other mode. Things still work though because you're using ``HISADDR'' as this makes it a sticky route, and your eventual interface configuration causes a re-application of all sticky routes. > -- > > Vallo Kallaste > vallo@matti.ee -- Brian <brian@Awfulhak.org> <brian@[uk.]FreeBSD.org> <http://www.Awfulhak.org> <brian@[uk.]OpenBSD.org> Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
