I have never noodled with pppd. As a matter of fact, the only daemons i have successfully configured are the ones for samba. and that was a struggle. now i assume natd adds some functionality that cmott's ( and elvin ecklund's? ) "-alias" mods to ijppp dont have. But what are they? with ppp -alias and ssh everything JustWorks(tm). This means that all my needs were satisfied using a patched ijppp with my existing configuration file and ssh, which required no configuration at all. just my 0.02.. > -- > Brian <brian@awfulhak.org>, <brian@freebsd.org> > <http://www.awfulhak.org>; > Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour.... john ******************************************************************************* John Utz spaz@u.washington.edu idiocy is the impulse function in the convolution of life
