I'm looking for a way to dynamically assign ip addresses on a dial-in iijppp
server. The mechanism coded into iijppp seems to allow a.b.c.d/e but unless
I'm missing something there's no way to assign them from a range (say...
192.217.203.40 up to 192.217.203.69). I think this could be accomplished
through scripts but there must be a better method. I was looking into DHCP,
but I don't know if iijppp could look to a DHCP server for addresses (via
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf?).

Any help or ideas are appreciated!
