I wrote about this about a week ago and have gotten some responses and a
lot of help from Don Woodward Jr. However, I still can't get the sucker up
and running. At this point it is simply a matter of solving a "why won't
this work" problem as I have been using Slirp successfully for a while.

Does anyone connect a Mac (running ConfigPPP) to MacBSD via pppd? There
have been a number of posts regarding connecting MacBSD to other hosts via
pppd but I haven't read anything about persons wanting to get internet
access via their MacBSD box.

I basically dial in to a modem on the MacBSD box on tty00, login, start
pppd and click the Start PPP button in my ConfigPPP manual terminal window.
The negotiation completes successfully and both MacBSD and the Mac say that
ppp is up. However, I can only telnet to the MacBSD box and no where else.
Every other attempt at coonecting to another host gets me a Mac OS error
domain name not found. And yet a netstat -r shows the appropriate routes
and I can telnet to the others hosts from the MacBSD box.

Any ideas? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller...?
