It is just use to test if your workstations are able to go internet via the
masqed linux box.
It is totally insecure.

Mine kasi is like this, I'm using pppd 2.3.11. This version support dial on
demand. All you have to do is to add an ip address on the script and the
word demand. And then, I've got a script which is being executed by crond
every minute to fire-up my pppd. The chat script will only be executed if
the ppp0.pid is not found.

Yes, but I would recommend that you download ipchains-firewall-script. You
can download it from www.freshmeat.net.
