Let me know what you think pls iirc, if the ISP won't allow you to force an IP then it doesn't matter what goes there. I think it either goes: 'I'd like this IP please' 'OK then. Here you are' or: 'I'd like this IP please' 'Well you can't have it. Have this one instead' I may be wide of the mark because it has been a LONG while since I needed to touch a pap-secrets file but this has always been my understanding of it. -- Andrew McKay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
