Is it possible to see the output of your debugging log and the actual
"options" file that you are using.  The debug log normally provides a lot of
valuable information.  You might like to check your routing table after you
have formed a connection.  This should tell you whether or not a route was
created or not.  It is quite possible that a default route is not being
inserted into your system.

See ya
