trouble with windows and pppd
 

Hi!
I am trying to connect my windows xp box with my linux computer. The pppd starts allright and gives my windows box an ip etc. The problem is that the router address is the same as the ip adress of the client. This means that the client (windows xp) is trying to route via itself which (of course) doesn't work.
I get the following config from the linux box:

IP-adress 192.168.1.150
Netmask 255.255.255.255
Standard-Gateway 192.168.1.150
DNS server 192.168.1.1 (netmask 255.255.255.0)

my modem config file reads as follows:

lock
idle 0
debug
57600
noipdefault
proxyarp
192.168.1.150:192.168.1.151
ms-dns 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
ktune
noauth
local
nodefaultroute
noipx
connect "sleep 1; echo -n CLIENTSERVER"

Does anyone have any idea on how to change gateway???

/regards

If you mean the default gateway on the windows client matches it's ip address that should not be the problem, the interface with that ip is the output.

If that's not what your talking about then please explain.


Can you ping the router?
