Well, it (natd) _does_ pick up the dynamic address supplied for isppp0.
Try 'natd -verbose ...' and you'll see it. Otherwise I agree, there is
certainly something missing in natd's functionality, or maybe sppp
does'nt
supply what it's supposed to ??

YES...super; strange but correct. It works when I send natd a -HUP after
sppp is up. Thanx for the tip. However, natd must be -HUPed _every_ time
sppp has been down (idle timeout) and comes back up!
