Well, that turned out to be the problem.  The LAN settings had a default
gateway, here's what someone else sent me:

I eliminated the default gateway, and can now get both a ppp connection
and a LAN connection (although, my Lan is simply my Linux box networked
to my Mac by AppleTalk - it is very possible that other configurations
would not work...).

Hope this helps,
