Hi. Is this the right place for this question?  I'm using ppp to
dial up my network at work (13.*). I now want to make an
additional connection to the internet via IBM's internet service.
I've got the second connection dialed up, so netstat shows:

... but when I ping 204.146.253.145, I see the modem send light
blinking but don't receive anything. Can you suggest other things
to try (or direct me to the right place to ask the
question)? Thanks.

I don't understand how your network is set up.

Let me get this straight:


---+-------------- [ Internet ] ----------------------+--------
   |                                                  |

13.*.*.*                                          ?????????
   |           +------------------------------+       | 
   |           |     [ HOME MACHINE ]         |       |
   +-----------|-ppp/tun0            ppp/tun1-|-------|
               |       ethernet/ed1           |
               +-------------|----------------+
                             |
  ------------------[ local network ]---------------------

This is nuts.  If I have the case right, save money and dump IBM.

I suspect, though, that your worknet isn't connected to the Internet.  In
that case, you need to tweak your routing so that worknet traffic goes
over the link, local net traffic out the Ethernet card, and the rest out
the IBM link.  You'll need to know the netmasks for the worknet and local
Ethernet.

Let me know if I'm totally off base...
