Hi Simon,

Had this EXACT problem yesterday. This should work, according to my
understanding. However, the only way I could get it to work is to add
the dialer string to the R5 router, thus breaking the requirement you
mention.

However, if you then go on and configure PPP encapsulation and
authentication on the interface, you can remove the dialer string.

I think its related to R5 not knowing what to do with the traffic,
even though there is only one configured interface and the debug shows
it being sent to this Interface. Once you configure authentication,
the router can map the traffic to the interface using the hostname of
the calling router
