i'm having problems trying to figure out the best way to
create the following network:

EXISTING: gateway1 --> isp
              (ppp -alias)

NEW-NET:  gateway2 --> gateway1 --> isp
          (dynamic IP)     (ppp -alias)

i am adding ethernetworks to each gateway, and each
gateway should be able to handle dialups as well.
i need help deciding how to name, number, and mask
the ethernet and dialups coming into gateway2, and
wonder if this will impose any restrictions on
gateway2 clients.

i'd like the configurations of the gateways to be as
similar as possible for ease of maintenance.

ps. the more machines i have to maintain, the more i wish
i didn't have to enter data redundantly.  i wish i could
to set the baudrate (or hostname, etc) for all programs
by setting one variable - if anyone has any good tips
on configuration simplification, i would appreciate them.

thank you.
