Strange problem with ppp server --MKP



I'm running a PPP server on my debian 1.3 box for one of my friends on a win95
machine to connect to. 

He dials in, and pap is authenticated. Great! First problem, though, is that 
no entries get created via route and ifconfig, so he gets stuck. 

So I manually put entires in right after he logs in like so:

ifconfig ppp0 192.168.0.23 netmask 255.255.255.255 up
route add 192.168.0.23 ppp0

The strangest thing is when I try telnetting to his machine, it connects to 
the server! (I.E. the server is 192.168.0.1. telnet 192.168.0.23 just loops 
back to it) 

So I guess my question(s) are: why aren't entries being created for the ppp0
device? (I assume I'm just missing an option somewhere)

(Oh, I'm using the mgetty that came with 1.3)

Any help appreciated.
