5997.0. "IP routing over PPP dial-up connection" by VAXRIO::LEO () Mon May 12 1997 10:57

    Hi,
    
    	This is Leo from Digital Brazil.
    
    	I would like to know if it is possible to Windows NT to route IP
    packets over a PPP dial-up connection to a Internet Service Provider.
              
    	The design of my configuration is :
    
    
                                Internet Service Provider
                              /
    			     /-> PPP dial-up connection
                            /
                  NT Server
    
    			|
    			| -> IP packets
    			|
          -----------------------

    	Any help would be appreciated.
    
    	Thanks in advance.
    
    	Best regards,

	Yes.  You have all the PC's set up to have their IP Gateway address
  point to the LAN side of the NT Server and have the server route the packets
  to the ISP.  You can use Autodial (available from Internet Shopper, see URL:
http://www.net-shopper.co.uk/ )
  to handle the dialup and Somar's Redial to handle redialling if the connection
  is dropped.
