Hmm After three weeks of trying to route a Class C -> Class C (net
connected) network 
using WinNT 4.0 I have given up and but the modem on my trusty FreeBSD
(2.1 release)
machine .. 

now I did get the mdoems to connect using iijppp (after realizing that
he modems I 
use needed to be "primed" at the right speed b4 they would give a non
garbled login)

Here's a erm...diagram :
		     	203.23.56.60
			203.23.56.59	203.23.56.59
Router ----- FreeBSD ---ijppp ---///----RAS --- NT4srvr-------|
203.23.56.1  203.23.56.58			203.55.32.1


Basically the RAS machine dials into the FreeBSD setup using
203.23.56.59 and 
due to NT4.0 IP routing enable setups an automatic route to
203.23.56.59.
The FreeBSD machines default gateway is the router at 203.23.56.1 
The FreeBSD machine can also ping any machine on the 203.55.32 network.

Two questions :
	1. Can iijppp and the NIC on the FreeBSD machine have the same IP
address ?
	2. Is this the way to do it .. ?
