I am most of the way through configuring a 2.2 machine to be a pppd termserver. I have everything working EXCEPT for the fact that the connected clients cannot reach anything outside my LAN, i.e. they are not accessing our router for the default route. I have looked through the pppd man pages, but the only references to routing I found were defaultroute (which adds a default route entry into the LOCAL machine's routing table through the ppp link--not what I need) and proxyarp, which I am using. Is there some specific way to tell the ppp client what default router to use, or should the server be dealing with the routing on its own. I am not running routed or gated right now; what conf file lines would I need to feed them if they are required? Thanks for any help you can offer. Nick Grayphics http://www.grayphics.com/
