I haven't tried it.. I did state & nat with no effect :(

I've updated to 7.1-PRE but no luck, I still get the problem.

'before.pf' has what I would expect and 'after.pf' is empty..

Hmm.. It seems that if I restart PPP it comes good but I don't really know 
why. ie it's as if the old IP address is still somehow associated with the 
tun interface until it's reopened..?


Thanks for the help BTW :)
