Setting up a pppd dialin server for remote windows clients. When they dial
in, they're assigned the 10.0.0.10 ip address. My local lan runs on the
10.0.0.x address space behind a FreeBSD ipnat/ipf. The Windows machines
connect and login fine, but their gateway info is setup wrong, here's the
output from ipconfig /all (Windows 2000 machine dialing in):

PPP adapter Connection to TestServer:

	Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
	Description . . . . . . . . . . . : WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface
	Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-53-45-00-00-00
	DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
	IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.0.10
	Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255
	Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.0.10
	DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.0.1
	                                    10.0.0.3
	NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Disabled

The Windows machine can't ping anyone on the lan, nor can it reach out to
the internet. I'm using pppd which auths the dialups, using the following
/etc/ppp/options file:

-detach
auth
asyncmap 0
modem
crtscts
lock
refuse-chap
require-pap
proxyarp
debug
kdebug 1
mru 576
mtu 576
bsdcomp 15,15
deflate 15,15
vj-max-slots 16
10.0.0.1:10.0.0.10
ms-dns 10.0.0.1
ms-dns 10.0.0.3
netmask 255.255.255.0

Is it the default gateway that's the problem? Shouldn't it be 10.0.0.1 (my
FreeBSD ipnat gateway machine to the internet)? If so, how do I get pppd
to send that info out to the Windows machines dialing in? Or is this
something pppd can't do and I would have to use ppp for?

Thanks in advance
