Sorry. The address of lf is supplied in my /etc/hosts file. Forgot
about this.

Yes, I mean't to say, you can supply any remote ip address.  It'll
be changed to the proper address during PPP connection. At least
that's how I'd expect it to work, but I am wrong :-(.

If I supply a wrong destination address, my side won't accept the
destination address supplied by the destination host.
This is not a big problem, since you usually know the fix IP address of the
other side, only the address of your side is not fixed.

I think, there is a patch of phk to ifpppsubr.c that handles this
problem. This might be merged into the next version of i4b.

Wolfgang
