restarting net.ppp0

On a system which serves a LAN as NAT gateway, when the ADSL (pppoe)
link dies or when I restart net.ppp0, a lot of services like named,
dhcpd, squid, samba, sshd, etc are also restarted, for which there is no
reason. This is very uncovenient because the LAN depends on the system's
services for name resolution etc.
Anyone else seeing this?

If you are on baselayout 2, I'd bet you have rc_depend_strict="YES" in
your /etc/rc.conf. If you change that to NO, you might see the behavior
you are expecting.
