DSL with User PPP and Static IP

[Jerrys Transmission]

Hello,

I have just started working for a local auto transmission repair shop and am
trying to get the local server up and running.  Specifically, the server
works great with dynamic IPs assigned from the DSL provider (using PPPoE)
but it burps when I attempt a static IP as per the handbook's "Using User
PPP" section.

Our business was given the following values for connecting to the Internet:

Net:  69.37.6.192
Gateway:  69.37.6.198
Netmask:  255.255.255.248
Broadcast:  69.37.6.199
Static IPs 193-197


When I change /etc/ppp/ppp.conf (sample attached) to:

set ifaddr 69.37.6.193 69.37.6.198 255.255.255.248

tun0 is "Opened by PID xxx" but does not show any IP addresses, and the
connection does not work.  If I leave the ifaddr to the dynamic setting
(which includes the 0.0.0.0) everything works fine.  I am including a sample
of our local ppp.conf, ifconfig output, and relevant parts of rc.conf for reference.
Please note, the ifconfig output shows the missing inet line when a static
config is attempted.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,
