State-Changed-Why: 
I don't believe the suggested fix is appropriate.

I would suggest setting ppp_mode=background in ppp.conf and adding
a ``set mode auto'' (or whatever) to your ppp config instead.  You
may also need to muck about with ``set redial''.

The thing that concerns me is why you say it's sometimes necessary
to use natd instead of ppp's -nat switch (or ``nat enable yes'').
Under what circumstances is this necessary ?
