John,
thanks very much. I assume you mean in /etc/init.d/network ? I rem'd
the
last line, and I can now ping from that machine, but not from any of the
others who have this set as gateway. Nor FTP, nor HTTP (the other machines
are set with this machine as gateway, and the ISP's DNS servers as their DNS
servers).
Here's what I have in my network script now -- any comments appreciated.
#! /bin/sh
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0
IPADDR=192.168.1.3
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
GATEWAY=192.168.1.3
ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} netmask ${NETMASK} broadcast ${BROADCAST}
route add -net ${NETWORK}
# [ "${GATEWAY}" ] && route add default gw ${GATEWAY} metric 1

Yes. The IPMasq is irrelevant. Make sure that you don't have a default
route set up to your local network. You don't need it, and it will stop
pppd from making the ppp link a default route.

Here is your problem. You should not have a default route set up to your
local network. You don't need it, and it will stop pppd from making the
ppp link a default route.
