I found out what the reason for this was: It appears that pppd was trying to find out what the IP address of ppp0 is by looking at /etc/hosts, which had an entry for the host, which was meant for eth0. Adding noipdefault as an option to pppd solved the problem. I still have other problems but I hope to investigate a little more before asking for help.:-) Thanks, Fumi Okushi
