An alternative is to set up a masqueraded connection. That's probably
safer anyhow (about the only time you DON'T want a masqueraded connection
is if you're doing remote "X", where "X" won't know how to get back to
you). For that, first compile IP masquerading into your kernel. Do the
'insmod' on the IP masq modules (ftp, etc.). Then in /etc/ppp set up an
ip-up.local file and do the appropriate 'ipfwadmin' masquerading commands,
like so:
..................
# $1 is set to the TTY device of the incoming connection.
case $1 in
ttyC0)
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.0.10 -D 0.0.0.0/0
ttyC1)
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.0.11 -D 0.0.0.0/0
...................etc.........
where 192.168.0.10..xx are the addresses you assigned to your PPP ports,
and don't touch 0.0.0.0/0 (that's saying "ship stuff from there through
your default route").
Then in your ip-down.local you'll need to do the same thing, except with a
'-d' to delete the IP forwarding rather than an "-a" to add it. This is in
RH 5.0. RH 4.2 may have just had ip-down rather than ip-down.local --
check your /etc/ppp directory if you're still on 4.2.
