For over 9 months, we have successfully used Linux (RH 5.0) with diald and
IP masquerading to put our LAN on the Internet. Our former ISP used a
version of Unix (unknown which one). We recently switched to a different
ISP who uses (UGH!!!) NT. The dynamically assigned local IP is not present
in the output of ifconfig -- it is using the same IP as the ethernet card,
which is from the private set of network numbers (192.168.1.x). When I log
on using dip, it works correctly, assigning the dynamic IP to the local
(ppp0) interface. With both dip and diald, the remote IP is correctly
assigned.
Also, when logging on with dip, IP masquerading does not work.
Any ideas about what I might need to change for either diald or IP
masquerading?
