EPPPDD.EXE is the "debug version" of epppd.exe
It's the only one I've been able to get loaded "high" and still have
Arachne able to access. (have not figured out why Arachne can't access
epppd if it's loaded high)

Yes, you should change it to indicate the *correct* base port address.
This has been a stumbling block for too many users to keep count of.
Arachne v1.66 no longer uses "Default" as default. :-)

OK, there's a major problem soon to show-up.
If you haven't heard..... freewwweb is "almost dead". :-)

When epppd.exe is used, the IP_Grab line does not seem to matter.
Core.exe places that text into PPP.LOG
And it doesn't seem to matter what text we use.
I have tried all of the following and they have all worked fine.
1) IP address set to
2) my IP address is
3) the dynamic IP for this session is
4) what the heck does this number mean ???? :-)
#4 is not a joke!
It works, try it. :-)
(I'll do it right now and paste-in the resulting PPP.LOG)
___
OK, I'm on-line now using these 2 changes in arachne.cfg
Was----- Connection @lh epppdd.exe>PPP.LOG
Is now-- Connection @epppd.exe>>PPP.LOG
Was----- IP_Grab local
Is now-- IP_Grab What the heck does this number mean ??? :-)
--- current PPP.LOG ---
PPPD status: What the heck does this number mean ??? :-) 207.17.248.100
_______________________
Now I'll hang-up and re-connect with the "normal" stuff.
On the other hand,
I have found that when epppdd.exe is loaded high, the "IP_Grab" line
must contain the exact text which precedes the IP address in PPP.LOG
(this information is placed into PPP.LOG from the output of EPPPDD.EXE)
--- my current PPP.LOG ---
sifaddr ppp0: local 207.17.248.66, remote 204.179.144.20, netmask 252.0.0.0.
