yeh, good point I should elaborate a bit more I guess.
This server is already used internally as the email server. We can send and
receive email fine on our internal net.
The server used to be our internet gateway as well before we got an ADSL
modem/router connection. So we used to actually surf the web via this
machine.
I have just never been able to get email to work when I dialled in from
home....
What would be the route command to add a route from the server with ip
address 192.168.0.1 and the PC I am dialling in from with 192.168.0.12 over
ppp0.
regards
Alister
