Handling the two instances on a single port shouldn't be a problem, as pppd uses the traditional UUCP port locking scheme. However, handling them from a single daemon wouldn't be supported by the current code, and if these dial-in and dial-out instances need to have the same IP addresses, then things get even more problematic. -- James Carlson
