Yes if you already have a default route.  Don't specify a default 
route in /etc/rc.conf or else use ``add!''.

This says ``we want 127.0.0.1''.

We agree that he can have 132.204.9.20

He says 127.0.0.1 is fine.  Your ISPs ppp is misconfigured.

We're connected, and nobody in the world is ever going to talk to us.
You'll need to add a line to your config:

  set ifaddr 127.0.0.1/0 127.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0

the last 0.0.0.0 is the key bit.  It tells ppp to send 0.0.0.0 as 
your IP address.  This should force your ISP to actually allocate an 
IP number to you.

This is suggested in all the latest docs :-)  It's probably not 
stressed as much in your version.
