According to UUnet, dynamic PPP IP addresses must be used by all PPP accounts i.e. both local and peer (remote) IP addresses have to be 0.0.0.0 for the ppp setup. I have been using iijppp for demand dial. It works fine if I use 0.0.0.0 as my local IP address and a defined IP address as the peer (remote) IP address. However, if I specify both IP addresses to be 0.0.0.0, the iijppp does not dial out. Any reason ? Thank you for your help. Alfred.
