I now want to make an additional connection to the internet via IBM's internet service.

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 ] ----------------------+-------- | | | | [WORK] [IBM] 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...
