I have the following setup
XXXXXXXXXppp0 XXXXXXXXXXXXX
X linux X----------------------------------X cisco 801 X
XXXXXXXXX192.168.40.1 192.168.40.2XXXXXXXXXXXXX
192.168.1.164 192.168.5.1
The cisco dials into the linux box and the connection is very slow (for a
dialup). If I ping cisco to linux it gives a 30% packet loss but linux to
cisco gives no packet loss. Telnet linux to cisco is OK but telnet cisco to
linux is very slow. I suspect routing but I can't see any problems. The same
setup works perfectly on SCO 5.0.4 but I don't want to use it on that
server.
routing is setup with ip-up.local on the linux box
Linux is redhat 7.1 with kernel-2.4.2-2 ppp-2.4.0-2 mgetty-1.1.25-5

Gateway of last resort is 192.168.40.1 to network 0.0.0.0
192.168.40.0/24 is variably subnetted, 2 subnets, 2 masks
C 192.168.40.0/29 is directly connected, Dialer1
C 192.168.40.1/32 is directly connected, Dialer1
C 192.168.5.0/24 is directly connected, Ethernet0
S* 0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 192.168.40.1
Any suggestions as to where to start would be appreciated. I can provide
tcpdumps etc.
