[plug] Dial on Demand question

[Chris Griffin]

My apologies, it seems I forgot to mention that it is on a RedHat 6.1 system.
I have been playing around with the dial up networking and although I have 
the dial up networking going manually, it does not route unless I put in a 
manual route.
So, I guess I need to get the routing issue solved and then work out how to 
get it to automatically dial on demand. Then, set up another connection to 
accept the dial in of the user on the other modem.
I have looked on the mailing list archive and found some info, but nothing 
to solve the problem, as yet.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Chris
