Ooops, yes, you're right, that is the address of my ISP's computer, and is
*not* the IP address that I am assigned.

Anyway, a re-boot seemed to fix it.

The only thing that doesn't look right in my syslog is this:

Jul  1 20:36:28 sewage pppd[425]: Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP

But I get this even now, with ppp working.

I guess I won't worry about it too much now that it's working, but it is a
bit strange, since random reboots usually don't fix things in Linux :)

Thanks anyway!
Matt
