So, it >seems I shouldn't have to set anything extra up in the ppp.linkup. 1) Have you told natd the interface is dynamic and might change IPs? 2) If you're using ppp, why even bother with natd? The NAT in ppp uses the exact same libalias and gives you less headaches with ipfw because the translation on incoming packets is done before they hit ipfw, and outgoing after ipfw let them go. I can tell you this helps a lot when trying to use dynamic rules. Or am I missing some part of the picture?
