Help with ka9q

Hello all.

I am currently trying to set up a PPP link between a NeXT and a PC, which
is on the campus ethernet.  I have the NeXT PPP implimentation working, but
cannot get the PC up.  I believe that the packet driver is installed
correctly (NCSA telnet will use it), and that the problem is one of
configuring the PC routing tables, etc.  I have not even tried ka9q with
PPP, as I cannot get it to work over ether.

Could someone who has configured ka9q to work (even without ppp) please
email me a copy of their *.net file so that I can have a look at what is
going on?  Also, any tips on where to find more documentation would be
greatly appreciated.

What I would like to have eventually is this:

============PC============ether
             |
             |
             ppp
             |
            NeXT

with ka9q routing packets between the NeXT and the rest of the world.

Any help that you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
