Hi,
in fact the problem for me is more the fact that snmpd
remembers all the old instances of the interface in a
"down" state. This basically makes MRTG unable to
monitor a dynamic ppp interface since it doesn't know
which one to pick among so many of them :-)

What's the problem actually ? If you are referring to the same ppp0
interface everywhere, might be due to ppp link flapping alot ? I
think snmp works that way, it doesn't reassign the index until reboot
(correct me if i'm wrong).

Hi there again,
sorry to insist, don't want to be a drag, but does
anybody has an idea about what's going on here ?
linux:~>snmpwalk -v 2c -c public localhost
IF-MIB::ifDescr
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: lo
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: eth0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.3 = STRING: sit0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.8 = STRIN
