I've been using Rich Stevens's bible and stuff compiles copy/pasted.
OK, I can't even ping 255.255.255.255 (when PPP is down, but when it's up
it's OK):
# ping 255.255.255.255
PING broadcasthost (255.255.255.255): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: wrote broadcasthost 64 chars, ret=-1
^C
[ppp up]

So for whatever reason it's not being recognized and turned into an
Ethernet 48bit broadcast.
