I'm wondering the same thing, but I think that's all done when you start
the PPP. When I get it started and logged on I have to manually do an
"add 0 0 HISADDR" at the PPP prompt for the default gateway address to
be added to the routing tables. This is even with these lines in
ppp.linkup:
MYADDR:
add 0 0 HISADDR
When I've gone ahead and entered "add 0 0 HISADDR" and check the routing
tables ("show route" at the PPP prompt) they look fine. Then I shell
out and ping 127.0.0.1 which works fine. I then ping my dynamically
assigned address and that works fine also. But as soon as I try and
ping an address outside of my internal network (such as the default
gateway) I get no response. I hope this further helps anyone to help
us.
thanks again for any input.
