&gt; Hi guys - I have a feeling this is an easy one; but I can't figure it out.
&gt; 
&gt; I'm trying to link 2 lans over the internet using pppd.  I'm NOT trying 
&gt; to tunnel it through SSH, however.  It's an odd configuration, and 
&gt; security isn't an issue here, so I don't need the ssh tunnel.  
&gt; Basically, I have 2 LANs that I want to link via PPP.  Each LAN has its 
&gt; own static gateway address.  I'd like to link them together.  Both LANs 
&gt; are numbered differently (ie. one is 192.168.3.0 and the other is 
&gt; 192.168.4.0).  I'd like to link them as such:
&gt; 
&gt; LAN1 (192.168.3.0) - Gateway (201.232.1.2) - Internet - Gateway 
&gt; (12.31.212.69) - LAN2 (192.168.4.0)
&gt; 
&gt; I could easily handle the routing issues that are involved; however, I 
&gt; just can't seem to find simple and straighforward info on how to do PPP 
&gt; in this configuration.  The PPP howto has a 1 paragraph &quot;chapter&quot; on 
&gt; linking LANs with PPP, but it simply says that the howto can show you 
&gt; how to do it.  But it doesn't -  it only shows dialup/chat style PPP 
&gt; connections.
&gt; 
&gt; I just want to do a simple &quot;pppd noauth ... &quot; command that I can use to 
&gt; create a link.
&gt; 
&gt; Can anyone shed any light on this for me?
&gt; 
&gt; Much thanks in advance,
&gt; -CB
