I am trying to do something that I am having a hard time geting to work quite right. here is the situation. I have a local network at home with 4 computers on it. These are a FreeBSD box that has a ppp auto dialup link to my IPS, 2 HP workstaions, and a Linux box. The default gateway for all the machines on my network is the FreeBSD box which is using packet alliasing. One of the HP's is the NIS server, and the other is the DNS server. I have a second phne line coming inot one of the HP's. This line is set up tu answer with fax tones, but if no connection is established it presents modem tones that lead to a login prompt. I have a laptop runing FreebSD that I want to be able to make a PPP connection to this network. I have set up ij-ppp on the HP. So far I can get an automatiic login and ppp makes it's connescion. I have even managed to ping, and telnet between the Hp and the lpatop nav vice versa. Now here is the problem, I can not ping other machines on the networ, or machines out to the net via the gateway. I suspect this is a problem with how I am seting up the routing tables on the HP, but I am not certain. Could some kind soul give me some words of wisdom here. Also does the Hp need 2 hostnames now that it has 2 IP addresses? Thanks. -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 770-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95.
