I have ppp running as dial-in server.

Everything works fine at the first connect. 

On the second connect I get the connection, ppp starts but I am not 
able to do a ping to the server's modem. Pings to all other machines 
do not come back either.

Very sure it is a problem with the routing table. It is very strange 
that after the disconnect of the first session there still is an entry in 
the routing table for the disconnected client with a '#link1' in the 
place of the gateway.

I had to reconfigure my kernel with the option ARP_PROXYALL. Probably 
this could be the reason. But without this option in the kernel the 
ppp didn't work at all (I could make the connection but could not 
ping any interface.) though I had proxy enabled in the .ppp.conf.

I have this problem with pppd and with user ppp. Both work fine on 
the first connect after the boot but fail on the further connections.

Can anyone give me a suggestion what to do?
