I tried to make it work without luck untill some nice person on the mailing list mentioned a hack to pppd by Charles Mott. Take a look at URL: http://www.srv.net/~cmott/alias.html Download ppp+pktAlias1.6.tar.gz unpack it, RTFM, make the changes the README.alias tells you to make. I did look into SOCKS5 and yes it will work too. It seemed like a little industrial strength for what I wanted to start with. I do plan to use it down the road however.
