RE: PPP/SLIP into the IBM Global Network.

Having more than one default route active isn't allowed simply because
it does make sense. You've either got to ensure only one of these routes
is active at any one time, if they both really are default routes, or
change one of them. The LAN interface doesn't have to be a default
route, in fact if this is a simple network it doesn't have to be defined
as a TCP/IP route at all. If the LAN route is the default route then you
may need to define access to networks available through the IBM network
as static routes.
