Jonathon, you are better off sorting this out on list. There are many better brains than mine on there. However, bpalogin has nothing to do with ip addresses. I think you should get your ip for eth0 from your ISP before bpalogin runs ie via pump, dhclient etc. And it won't be one of the non-routable ips. I use ods.org for dynamic dns and it works a treat. Good luck.

Just another question: After bpalogin succeeds, the corresponding network interface (e.g., eth0) will obtain a valid IP (not 192.168.x.x. or 172.x.x.x), right? Because I would like to use bpalogin with ddns such that my registered hostname in www.dyndns.org can be updated once my IP changes. Thanks in advance.
