I personally have a similar setup, although I have 2 dedicated IP's
here. Just FYI, Thomas - if you DO have the 2 IP's already, it's pretty
much the job of your ISP to make sure traffic for both of them gets
routed over your PPP link. If you don't have 2 static IP's (or you have
a dynamic PPP connection), then most of the work is on your end.
