Tried that one as well and I'm getting this from netstat -nr when I'm
connected.....

So, it looks like  'route add default gw device ippp0' works in the
way it should but I'm not sure why I can't forward packets ?  Other
thing is it looks like I've now got two ippp0 interfaces.   Very
untrustworthy :))  How about 'route add default gw pirhana' as the
O'Reilly Network Administrator's Guide suggests ?

Looked under forwarding in YaST and it's definitely enabled.  So, not
sure what's wrong

Thanks
