AW: pppd problem...



route gives

k6:~# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
62.53.142.1     *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 ppp0
192.168.0.2     *               255.255.255.255 UH    1      0        0 tap0
default         *               0.0.0.0         U     1      0        0 tap0

My isp requires the email address as the login name.  That works under
windows.

In pppconfig I set it to dynamically set the DNS server which I guess it's
doing because I'm getting the lines

Mar  1 18:58:38 k6 pppd[682]: primary   DNS address 62.53.142.30
Mar  1 18:58:38 k6 pppd[682]: secondary DNS address 193.189.244.205

in my script.  Or am I mistaken here?

Thanks,

Chris
