Look up /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/ip_dynaddr.txt. I believe
you have to do:
        echo 5 > proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr   or
        echo 7 > proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr   for verbose

: Subject: Remote IP address problem
: Date: Monday, May 31, 1999 3:21 PM
: 
: I have a problem that I hope has a fairly straightforward solution. The
: problem is when a program (telnet, ftp, Netscape, etc.) starts a link
: with diald (version 0.98.2), the first time it uses a dummy remote IP
: address given as "remote 194.109.2.10" in my config file, while all
: successive connections use the remote IP address dynamically assigned by
: my ISP. This is indicated in /var/log/diald.log. The first connections
: show up as:
: 
: Mon May 31 10:53:30 1999 PDT: Calling site 194.109.2.10.
: Mon May 31 10:53:52 1999 PDT: Connected to site 194.109.2.10.
: Mon May 31 10:54:45 1999 PDT: Disconnected. Call duration 53 seconds.
:       IP transmitted 2039 bytes and received 2188 bytes.
: 
: All following connections show up like the following, where the "20" in
: the "Calling site" IP address varies according to which remote computer
: I get at my ISP:
: 
: Mon May 31 10:56:21 1999 PDT: Calling site 199.2.132.20.
: Mon May 31 10:56:43 1999 PDT: Connected to site 199.2.132.20.
: Mon May 31 10:57:32 1999 PDT: Disconnected. Call duration 49 seconds.
:       IP transmitted 889 bytes and received 1045 bytes.
: 
: The result is that no network connections work after diald dials up to
: my ISP the first time. Using telnet for example, I get the message "Host
: name lookup failure" when I try connecting to a hostname, and "network
: unreachable" when I try an IP address. Restarting diald allows me to
: connect correctly again on the first call. Sometimes though, diald dials
: and allows telnet to connect to a hostname several times in a row. Any
: ideas?
