That's an interesting approach, although trying it from the remote side 
of the ppp link sounds quite adventurous :-)

The reason the ppp link has such a strange definition is that I have 
omitted giving it its own IP number, so it adopts the one that's 
already assigned.  That issue arose on this forum before and it sounded 
like a valid alternative to unnumbered links.  It does seem to have 
some drawbacks, however :-)
