Hello all-
  
I have a rather naive question regarding routing.

My home network is connected by ethernet. I occasionally connect to the outer
world via kppp, over the phone using UAA as my ISP. Currently, I have to bring
my ethernet interface down so that traffic goes through the ppp interface. Is
there some simple way that I can have both the ppp and ethernet interfaces both
up at the same time, so that, for example I can print a web page on my network
printer while browsing via the ppp interface. I am sure this is not rocket
science...

I should also note that after I no longer have a ppp connection and do an
i"fconfig eth1 up", I still cannot see my local network (again). I have to
restart th3e network (via init.d script) to get my local connectivity back.
