Yes I do, and that is the error I got in the log about not over writing the default route. However, hamms pppd and now potato's pppd do not have that problem! very odd! Do you know how this ability (or lack of ) is defined? Would it take a recompile of Slinks ppp package to get it functioning like hamms and potaots? I could have sworn I saw a kernel patch in the newsroups, but I used the same kernel (2.2.5) in both hamm and now slink without the problem. --Jay
