(1)I have kppp set up w/DNS addresses for my ISP, along w/phone# and other parameters. It works fine.
all you need.
(2)As long as I have eth0 set up for dhcp & have my ISP's DNS addresses in the lookup list, ppp0 continues to work just fine.
What lookup list?
(3)If I have eth0 set up for the local network using dhcp & the lookup set for my network (192.168.0.1) it doesn't work, whether or not ppp0 is active.
Do you mean DNS lookup? You don't setup your DNS to point to your own box, unless you've setup a DNS server on it. You have it remain as your ISP's in all other cases.
(4)If I have eth0 set up for the local network using a static 192.168.0.10 & the lookup set for 192.168.0.1 eth0 works just fine w/the LAN & ppp0 will connect, but there is absolutely no modem throughput. The hub lights flash when I attempt to access the internet, and 'ip forwarding' is turned off.
Lookup setup for 192.168.0.1 eth0? now it sounds like you're talking about the routing table, your not supposed to edit that one by hand. Setting up Linux to work with a network and a dialup is easy as pie. You first, use YaST to configure the network interface and you leave the Gateway address empty, as well as the DNS unless you have a DNS server of your own. Then, you configure the kppp for a dialup according to your ISP's specifications and both will work just fine. If you want your box, to allow other computers on your box to connection through yours to the internet via your dial up ... you use YaST to setup SuSE firewall2 and you specify eth0 as the internal, and ppp0 as the external device.
