Hi,

    I have a host running BSD 2.1 on a LAN. The host can access internet
through the router on the LAN. The host is also configured as a ppp 
server. I can dialin to the ppp server. And I can ping the machines from
both directions on the two sides of the phone line. But the ppp client
can't ping the router on the LAN and so can't access internet. Does any
one know what's wrong? Thanks for any suggestion in advance.

Regards,
James
