I'm trying to get user ppp to work.  My provider uses slirp and
dynamically assigns my IP, but their
DNS is always 192.74.137.5.  ppp seems to connect.  When I type 'show
log', this is what I get:

[671] Using interface: tun0
[671] PPP Started.
[671] Phone: 7399753
[671] *Connected!
[671] Phase: Authenticate
[671] Phase: Network
[671]  myaddr = 208.192.100.16 hisaddr = 192.74.137.5
[671] OsLinkup: 192.74.137.5

But when I try to ping the DNS, nothing happens:

PING 192.74.137.5 (192.74.137.5): 56 data bytes

Nothing happens for a while, until I hit ^C.  Of course, Mosaic doesn't
work either.

As per the man pages, I've set up my ppp.conf (ppp.con) and ppp.linkup
(ppp.lin), which are
attached, as well as the results of 'ifconfig tun0' before (tun_a.txt)
and after (tun_b.txt)
establishing the connection, and the results of 'netstat -rn' before
(netstat1.txt) and after
(netstat2.txt).

Please help.  This has gone on too long.
