I am running FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE, using ppp with a DSL router.  I run ppp
in ddial mode, using tun0 as the device.  My DSL service provides me
with a dynamic IP address.  

Whenever I get disconnected somehow (most likely by the ISP or switch I
am connected to), and ppp reconnects, tun0 ends up binding to 2
different IP addresses - the one it was using prior to disconnecting and
the new one.

Has anyone ever experienced this problem and has a way to solve it?  It
happens to me regularly.  Please let me know if you need any more
information.

Thanks in advance,
-Jason
