If you have 8 machines and a 3 bit netmask for your side of your
PPP link, is it possible to have 6 of the machines live in the
reachable net and the other two use the effect of the -alias flag
to IJPPP? That is, choose 5 machines (plus the router) to live in the
reachable 3 bit network, and every other machine get portmapped?
