I start CIPE manually. So I finish the connection before I start cipe.

"I've found the problem. I've searched it since last week. My Problem 
the SuSE start script. (in German: SuSE ist einfach verknaupt ) It 
searches a route to the peer host only through the devices, which are 
specified in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-xxx All other devices are 
ignored by SuSE. Now I tried to copy ifcfg-eth0 in ifcfg-ppp0 and change 
the subnet and IP in ifcfg-ppp0. And now it works. I don't know why 
ip-up had made problems too, maybe SuSE has changed somthing in there 
too. I'll find it out. And the SuSE start script breaks without anny 
logging in /etc/var/messages or cipe.log Thank you Christoph, your 
question about the routes in ip-up has waked the right idea. Daniel "

I found this in the archive. How do I have to change the IP and the 
subnet in ifcfg-ppp0. I only have ifcfg-dsl0.
