Well I've got pppd to add an arp, (proxyarp), add routes, ping 
from the ppp-server to the client and the other way round.

I can view the ppp-clients fake arp address from another 
net-client on the ethernet (it's the same as the ppp-servers arp) but 
I can't ping from the net-client to the ppp-client, nor can I ping 
from the ppp-client to the net-client.

the parameters which I use are:
pppd passive proxyarp ppp-serveripaddress:ppp-clientipaddress
the options file contains the correct netmask for my network.
netstat -r shows me the route to my ppp-client goes via the
ppp-device.

How can I enable the ppp-client to access machines other
than the ppp-server ? Do I NEED gated or is there a parameter
for pppd that I've missed.

Cheerio
