Hello all;

	I usually use the option -ddial so that when the link goes down it 
gets reestablished.  This works great except for one problem.  I do have 
a static IP but not a static router IP.  So if I leave the setting like 
this: 

 set ifaddr 204.157.146.220 204.157.146.83 255.255.255.255


It allows me to use the -ddial option.  However the 204.157.146.83 
(HISSADDR) number shifts between three different IPS.  But if I leave 
that number at 0.0.0.0 or simply 0, I cannot use -ddial because it claims 
that -ddial and -auto can only be used when a dest. address is provided.  
How can I use both 0.0.0.0 for HISADDR and still be able to use -ddial.  
I am using FBSD 2.1.7 locally for this dialup.  Any ideas or clues would 
be greatly apprecited.  Thanks.
