I don't know, though my ISP insists that I use it also. All I did was 
boot into Windows and trap the DNS lookups to a log file via my 
firewall. Of course, I'm in trouble if they ever decide to change the 
IPs of their DNS (so if you find a better solution I would be 
interested to know it), but it does work for the time being.

/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/0dns-up for ipppd ?

hi,

I was pleased to see that there is a file in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d that
does the dynamic nameserver-assignment (option usepeerdns) for pppd
(probably created by pppconfig).

Now I would like to know if there is anything similar for ipppd
(option ms-get-dns) ? The above file would most probably work
except for the fact that the environment variables are called MS_DNS1/2
instead of DNS1/2.

thanks,
