I searched the net today and found a mail one and half years ago on this list,  
mentioning the 'unit' entry in pppd/dsl-provider. If that is all that is 
needed to get always the same address(es) on the ppp interface(s); it should 
work now. Hopefully :)
The gateway column in providers is empty, and it does work with shorewall 
shell.
