I use user ppp to login to my ISP. This works fine. Lately the phone lines have been very poor due to winter wet conditions and my line drops. When this happens, user ppp tells the modem to redial and I am back on line. I have noticed that each time I get reconnected ifconfig -a command shows the new connected ip address (inet) added to the list of inet ip address I have connected to previously. After 4 phone line drops ifconfig lists all 4 inet address. Is this normal? Do I have to add something to ppp.conf to release those inet ip address each time a redial in done? If so what?
