>Description:
In the /etc/rc.network file, there is no provision to add additional options to ppp startup such as unit #.  This code change to rc.network and an additional entry in /etc/defaults/rc.conf will resolve this.

>How-To-Repeat:

Change Request: No trouble to repeat.

>Fix:

Beginning on line 279 of file /etc/rc.network, add these lines:

case ${ppp_flags} in
  [Nn][Oo])
    ;;
  *)
    ppp_command="${ppp_command} ${ppp_flags}"
    ;;
esac

Beginning on line 108 of file /etc/defaults/rc.conf, add this line:

ppp_flags="NO"		# Additional flags to ppp.
