eth0 and pointopoint setting


Hi,

I have two problems. The first is that eth0 is now associated with my ppp connection. When I run route, I get the following:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
203.194.57.227 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
203.194.57.227 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 203.194.57.227 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0

Sorry for the formatting. I don't think the eth0 destination should be the same as the ppp0 destination. It's my fault it is, I was playing with the pointopoint setting, but now I can't change it back. "ifconfig eth0 -pointopoint" doesn't seem to work. Even after taking eth0 down and back up again.

SECOND PROBLEM

How do I make the ppp0 connection on my RH9 box available to another computer (W2K box) in my LAN? I thought I might be able to create a second eth0 address and link it directly to ppp0 somehow, but I obviously don't have a clue what I'm doing! ;-)

Thanks,

Paul
