Really? My pppd man page covers this - not as clearly as it might,
but it does say in the section on "options files" that pppd reads
/etc/ppp/options and ~/.ppprc before reading options on the command
line, and the "files" section says that /etc/ppp/options.ttyXX is read
after the command line.
My ppp is from bo, version 2.2.0f-23.
