Try adding this to your ppp.conf


 enable dns		      # Gets the ISP's DNS IP address & places them
		      	# in resolv.conf for reference by FBSD box.

 disable iface-alias    # Stop adding old IP addr as alias when ppp
                        # redials because line was lost. These old
ips
                        # showed using  ifconfig -a   on tun0.

 iface clear            # Remove all previous IP address

 add default HISADDR    # Add a (sticky) default route (Mandatory)

Subject: How to delete/replace default route using ppp?

I'm trying to get a new laptop set up for a quick out of town trip.

Can anyone help me with the ppp.conf syntax to clear/replace an
existing
default rout for the duration of a ppp linkup?

That is, the machine starts off with a default route, which I want
to
delete and replace with the ppp route for the duration of the
conection.
Then I wnat to put the orignal route back.

Sugestions?
