Hi! Trying to kill the keyboard, domlife@domlife.com produced:

2. Boot looks fine. named is started (although I am not sure I set up anything for that expllicitly, probably under 'portmap' daemon) 3. eth0 is set up and works fine. 4. ppp0 is set up, both local and remote IP are 0.0.0.0 5. local ping works fine (ovr the LAN segment subnet).

I think you can get by with /etc/hosts in your small network --- unless you want to play and learn with a nameserver.

Now is the big one. 6. ping to an outside IP returns "Network is unreachable" Log of /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-up <provider> returns no errors and shoes 2 IPs assigned (local/remote). That is all I know.

You seem to have not set up the routes correctly. Someone must tell the kernels where to ask if it's not on the local lan ... default route is set up by pppd once the connection is there, but not for all the other computers, only for the one pppd is connecting from on.
