$ pon provider dryrun
/usr/sbin/pppd: bad local IP address 127.0.0.1
$

What does it mean? It is only obtained with non root user.

I tried googled for it but was able to see only non English replies to
similar queries. I believe the following is relevant:

$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.9 calanitGateway
192.168.0.10 calanit

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
# (added automatically by netbase upgrade)

::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

$ ypcat hosts
