Hi all,

I have two linux machines there are data servers on different cities.

One of them have two ethernet cards: one for lan, one for internet.
The Internet connection is a permanent wireless connection with my isp
and this machine is also an internet server for my local lan.
Obviously, one of the ethernet card has a private ip the other one has
an static ip give it to me for my isp. I, also, have a modem in the
machine. I will call this machine diteca_gye.

The other machine has just one ethernet card for the lan with a
private ip.
It can connect with the internet via modem. Actually is the same isp.
I will call this machine diteca_uio.

This is my problem.

When i start to work in this company it was setted up a ppp connection
between diteca_gye and diteca_uio that trasnmit some data from the
database to the other machine and viceversa. But one day diteca_uio
died. I had to re-install the entire system but i couldn't
re-establish the ppp connection. When the machine died diteca_gye was
not connected to the internet that happened later (actually, in the
space of time diteca_uio was re-installed the internet connection in
diteca_gye was established and the second network card was added to
it.)

I have been trying to set this connection up again. Actually the
connection is established but just a few seconds it happens the modem
hangs up.

Any ideas?? Suggestions?? It is possible to get the transmission work
do via internet in a secure channel? if so, how? can you point me to
good howto?

Thanx in advance,
Jaime Casanova
