I have gotten it so that pinging from either end shows up in
/var/log/messages even though no response is recieved. Here are the
entries from either end:
Sep 22 21:26:47 server kernel: IN=eth1 OUT=ppp0 SRC=192.168.0.2
DST=192.168.0.100 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=65209
PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=512 SEQ=44800
Sep 22 21:29:11 server kernel: IN=ppp0 OUT=eth1 SRC=192.168.0.100

TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=1024 SEQ=2304
Here is a copy of my routing table:

Hope this might shed some light as to what my problem is. Thanks.
