Are you running ppp -alias?  Which FTP client?  There are some
shortcuts in the aliasing code.  I've not yet seen any programs that
doesn't send the connection data in a way we can handle, but there
still might be one.

The other most likely problem you might have is lack of a default
route (default gateway) in server3 - you have to set
defaultrouter=="192.168.1.1"
in rc.conf on server3.  If this is missing, it won't work.

Eivind.
