  Is this not correct? Should this not cause ppp to be started, using the
  storm profile, at boot?
  
  I had to do it manually via
  
  ppp -ddial storm
 
 I remember that on FreeBSD 6.x the script ppp-user has changed to ppp,
 maybe updated without using mergemaster?

Well, I'm using 5.4.

 Hey people,

 I had a power failure today (there goes my uptime) that lasted longer than my
 UPS, and when the box came back up, my PPPoE connection did not.

 ppp_nat=YES

 I had to do it manually via

 ppp -ddial storm

This seems to be started by the ppp-user rc script, but it didn't seem to
happen.

Any ideas?


try with:
ppp_enable=YES
ppp_mode=ddial
#ppp_nat=YES
ppp_profile=storm

and reboot.
