heya.

'nother PPP problem - as if there weren't enough already.  Using PPP to link a
router to the net via a leased line.  after obeying the instructions 
in the handbook( adding the tun0 to the list of interfaces, adding the 
'ifconfig tun0 196.3.248.106 196.7.71.66' line in sysconfig...)

I fire up user ppp, which connects via the line and starts ppp.  an add 0 0 
196.7.71.66 in the ppp.linkup is run, and then it is possible to ping and 
telnet etc....

About a minute later, the console displays the message that route tun0 has been removed because of timeout (this occures whether the link is active or not).
the net.connection is now broken (tho the modems are still attached) with that 
route entry 196.7.71.66  196.3.248.106 missing.  

help ?
