questions about incoming ppp



Hi,

I actually managed to set up an ippp server, so that I can connect
to my private Linux box from another Windoze machine through ISDN.

But a connect is all I get.  Windoze tells me, it couldn't get an IP
address from the PPP server and hung up.  When I setup Windoze to
use 192.168.2.1 as IP, the connection stayed, but I didn't know how
to do anything from there.  I tried a ping, but to what address?
Yep, you read that right: I have no idea what ip my own linux
machine has seen from the Windoze machine, or where I set it up?

Here is what I see in kernel.log:
Oct 17 16:46:11 localhost kernel: ippp0: call from XXXXX -> XXXXX accepted 
Oct 17 16:46:11 localhost kernel: modehscx hscx 1 mode 2 ichan 0 
Oct 17 16:46:12 localhost kernel: isdn_net: ippp0 connected 
Oct 17 16:50:46 localhost kernel: modehscx hscx 1 mode 0 ichan 0 
Oct 17 16:50:46 localhost kernel: modehscx hscx 1 mode 0 ichan 0 
Oct 17 16:50:46 localhost kernel: ippp0: remote hangup 
(between 16:46 and 16:50 I tried to do anything useful, but failed)

I guess this sounds pretty stupid to anyone who has done this before.
I apologize for that.  I guess I am just too new to all this.

Thanks in advance for any hint.  I'll appreciate your help,
 Andy.
