It should do (using the -dedicated switch).  You will also need to 
``set openmode passive''.

If this doesn't work, can you send me a copy of your log (see 
http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html for details), or if it does 
work, do you think openmode should default to passive for -dedicated 
mode ?

Cheers.
