Normally you would set the gateway in /etc/rc.conf (not in ppp.conf) but 
not in your case becasue I guess that would lead to your server pointing 
to itself. You need to set the gateway on the clients to point to the 
server somewhere in Windows network config.

Subject: PPP and client gateway


I have succesfully ( well sort of ! ) installed userland PPP as a server. 
it 
(together with mgetty) allows users (win95) to connect via modem and surf 
the 
web, or atleast that was the thought. It seems that everything is just 
fine 
with the clients except that they get assigned their own IP as gateway. 
DNS 
is correct and IP gets assigned to them as I specify, but when they run 
winipcfg the gateway is the same as their assigned IP. How do I fix this.. 
just tried I longshot in ppp.conf and specified 'gateway x.x.x.x', but of 
course as you all probably know that didnt work (illegal command :) )..


Regards,

Thomas Uhrfelt
