Hey,

I need to set up an ethernet interface on my debian box as a pointopoint
interface.

I tried the following:

/etc/network/interfaces

eth0 inet static
     address "my ip"
     netmask 255.255.255.255
     pointopoint "remote ip"

If I do a ifup eth0 the interface is brought up with the correct IP and
netmask but in broadcast and not pointopoint mode.

Anyone have any ideas.
Help is very appreciated.
Thanks.

Bye,
Philip
