I have finally managed to get a PPP implementation for Esix 4.0.3a and
am now in the midst of configuring it.  My question is, "Can I connect
one machine on one network, say 183.100.1.1 to another machine on
another network, say 142.49.1.18; or must both machines be one the same
network?"

Furthermore, if I can't connect two networks together via PPP straight
out of the box, is there someway that i can configure it so that it will
work?  It would be terribly inconvenient to have to change network
numbers just so i can PPP from one host to another... (:-(
