You need to ensure that PPP is setup to ask for the routing details and
IP. My PPP file has the following options:
hide-password
noauth
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/Bigpond"
/dev/ttyLT0
115200
defaultroute
noipdefault
idle 1800
usepeerdns
Not sure where it goes exactly in RedHat though.
