Hello:
We are trying to route our freebsd ppp client to the internet
through out freebsd ppp server but have problems doing so.
The ppp server machine (mail) is the mail server for our entire
comany with a standard ethernet connection to our isp through
ethernet interface ed0.
Please look at the following diagram:
freebsd machine - tpe ////////////// freebsd machine - mail -> isp
(ppp client) (ppp link) (ppp server)
The machine tpe and it's clients are able to see the machine mail
without any problems, but they cannot see the isp (or ping
anything beyond the mail machine itself). How do we create the
route from the tun0 interface on machine mail to the ethernet ed0
interface? We tried starting the ppp server with the -direct flag
and this did not help. The normal route add commands don't seem to
work either.
Here is a portion of netstat -r from the machine mail:
daniel@mail$ netstat -r

ppp.conf on the tpe machine uses the -alias option.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
