The only problem with that being that I already have a default route 
defined in /etc/sysconfig/network as follows:

GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
GATEWAYDEV=eth0

I am _guessing_ that the change from using a default gateway on 
another machine on the LAN to using this machine as default gateway 
with PPP going will involve changing this information.  I'm not 
entirely sure how to change it (safely) though.

Cheers, Dave.
