Hey, this seems like a popular subject on here.  I've used RAS for ages on
NT4 dialling into several ISP's, but have recently moved onto Demon.  Hey
presto ! It no longer works.  Well, not quite true; I can connect using
SLIP instead of PPP, but AutoDisconnect in RAS does not appear to work with
SLIP, only with PPP (at least on my system), and I need that for our Proxy
Server.  I've done all the stuff like setting DNS servers, trying PPP
subkeys in the registry, downloading the hotfix for RAS on Service Pack 2,
tried with+without LCP extensions, enabled/disenabled our own DNS server
etc. etc..
I have the usual problem; connects OK but ping etc. does not work. 
Moreover, even pinging an IP address does not work, so it seems that RAS
hasn't figured on Demon's gateway.  This is proved by 'ipconfig' telling me
the default gateway is the same as my own IP address.  Anyone know how to
force RAS to use a specified gateway IP address. (No, setting the default
gateway under Control Panel|Networking doesn't do it)
