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.
