 I've implemented one additional option for the ipppd:
  'useifip' will get (if set to not 0.0.0.0) the IP address 
  for the negotiation from the attached network-interface. 
+(also: ipppd will try to negotiate pointopoint IP as remote IP)
 You must disable BSD-compression, this implementation can't
 handle compressed packets.
