I have a problem.  I have a mate who is too far away to sling a network
cable to who wants to join in our multiplayer games.  He has a modem, I
have got Linux to answer the phone with pppd and so on and it all works
just fine from the Linux machine but not from any other machine on the
network.

I have enabled all the stuff in the Linux kernel I can find relating to
routeing and set the Linux box as the default gateway in all the others.
I have also tried moving the dial-in IP to a different subnet.

Nothing works!  Help!

TIA,
TB               Busby the Cat 1984 - 22.9.1999
