Have to get back on you about "char-major-208".
Kernel is using version 2.3.7 of the ppp driver and you are using
version 2.3.9 of the ppp daemon, no problem for what I know if both
keep to 2.3.x (my driver is 2.3.3 and my daemon is 2.3.10).
Now you really should read the small letters, ;). I think you need the
IP Masquerade HOWTO, the IPCHAINS HOWTO and the ipchains man page.
I'll give you a hint but its no favor I'm making, you _should_ read the
above mentioned for security reasons.
Somewhere in your startup files (I use it before the network is up) you
should run the following script:
-cut here-
#!/bin/sh
# Set the following line to your gateway device
# if different from ppp0.
#IF_OUT=ppp1
ipchains -P forward REJECT
ipchains -A forward -i ${IF_OUT:="ppp0"} -j MASQ
-cut here-
And do not forget to set the FORWARD_IPV4 option to "yes" in
/etc/sysconfig/network.
I hope this helps.
