PPP isn't really a client-server pair. They're the same program. It's
just a question of what it's i/o is being piped into and out of. You'll
need to set up NetBSD with firewall toolkit, probably. Look for fwtk
instructions at http://www.macbsd.com/macbsd/howto/fwtk-faq.html
In addition, you may need to get a second IP number from your ISP, unless
it does that through bootp, in which case... I have no idea. Should work
through a firewall if you set it up right, I guess.
Hope that helps a little.
