Don't ask me how/if you can do this, but you're going to need to do more
than just turn on routing.  You would need the Amiga to also do NAT
(Network Address Translation).  The PC's IP (135.2.6.101) isn't routable
so even if you get packets from that to the outside world (which you may
already be doing), then you're never going to get any replies back coz
it's a duff IP.

What you need is for the Amiga to change the headers of the IP packets
from the PC as they go out so that the source IP will be the IP of the
Amiga's PPP interface.  Then when they come back in, the Amiga would have
to translate them back again and pass the appropriate ones on to the PC.

I do it the other way round - routing the Amiga through a PC running
Linux. It's easy that way round, I dunno about NAT on the Amiga.


Hope that helps,

Tim
