After running pon, the output of /sbin/route is as follows:
[07/01/01 20:00] sewage:pts/2:~% /sbin/route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
207.144.202.10 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
default 207.144.202.10 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0
Obviously 207.144.202.10 is the IP address I am assigned.
Even if I try to ping myself, I get an error:
[07/01/01 20:00] sewage:pts/2:~% ping 207.144.202.10
PING 207.144.202.10 (207.144.202.10): 56 data bytes

Any more ideas?
Thanks again!
