This is what should be happening. I would guess that something else on your machine is starting another ppp invocation (on tun1) - although this sounds bizarre. > Below is the ifconfig from my machine: > > > tun0: flags=8051 mtu 1500 > inet6 fe80::250:4ff:fec1:ba68%tun0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x8 > inet 10.0.0.2 --> 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 > inet6 2001:200:703:1::1 --> 2001:200:703:1::2 prefixlen 128 > Opened by PID 2025 > tun1: flags=8051 mtu 1500 > inet6 fe80::250:4ff:fec1:ba68%tun1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x9 > inet 0.0.0.0 --> 192.168.100.2 netmask 0xffffff00 > inet6 fe80::86e4:81d4%tun1 --> fe80::3a48:d102%tun1 prefixlen 128 scopei > d 0x9 > Opened by PID 2007 > tun2: flags=8010 mtu 1500 > inet6 fe80::250:4ff:fec1:ba68%tun2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xa > > > any ideas how to prevent the above from occuring???
