The unit number is assigned by pppd, not by pptpd. pppd can use the "unit" option. Easiest place to put this is in the options file that pppd is given. Exactly where that is depends on your distribution choice or how you build pptpd, but usually it is in /etc/ppp and provided by the pptpd package as options.pptpd. If the unit number is already in use, the next available is used instead. See "man pppd" and search for the unit option. Another method to solve this is to direct the other applications, which may create fewer interfaces, to use higher numbered units. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk.
