The advice worked great, thanks!
One last problem though. When I try a traceroute from my win98 machines on
the internal net say to www.cache.net I get so far and then get the error
that the network in unreachable, but I can traceroute the same place from my
linux box and it went all the way through. For example this is what happens
on my win98 box:
Tracing route to oliblish.cache.net [209.160.63.8]

This is what I get from my linux box:

this is a problem for my win98 boxes because I need to map network drives to
computers on that remote network,and I can't do it because I can't make a
direct connection. Any ideas?
Thanks for the help!

There can be only one default route, because that is where everything that
isn't explicitly routed will go. You need to make specific route entries
for
the subnets that are permanent, and leave the default route for the ppp.
You
must have some idea of what subnets to throw at the netware server, so just
add the necessary static-routes to /etc/sysconfig/static-routes.
Something like this:
eth0 net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
The parameter for defining the default gateway (GATEWAY) is in
/etc/sysconfig/network -- so you should probably get rid of that. So you
can
use either admin tools to change these things, or just edit the files.
Those
are the files used in Red Hat derivatives and a few other distributions.
Others may just set that junk up in the rc.net scripts.
As far as traceroute trying to use eth0, that is a "feature" ;) You'll have
to specify the device to use with the -i switch.
