RRAS ADSL Internet connection using NAT

I have an ADSL internet connection that I have to share on
the network for other users. I have setup the interface in
RRAS and it dials out and connects to the ISP with DNS
server entries and correct static IP address. NAT has been
added as a protocol.
However, when you ipconfig it, there is no default gateway
specified on that interface!!!
I have set up a dun to test the connection and it goes out
OK with a default gateway specified. IE can detect the
connection and all is OK. I cant use ICS on the DUN as it
doesnt work with DHCP and DDNS running (grrrr).
The difference between the two connections appears to be
an option which is greyed out on the RRAS interface but
not on the DUN. It's in the advanced options of the TCP/IP
config - "This checkbox applies only when you are
connected to a local network and a dial-up network
simultaneously. When checked, data that cannot be sent on
the local network is forwarded to the dial up network."
Then there is a tick box for the "use default gateway on
remote network".
When I untick this box on the DUN it reacts the same way
as the RRAS interface.
I thought maybe I needed to add some static routes on the
demand dial interface, but the default gateway greys out
when you select it.
Pls help . . . . if I had any hair left, then I would be
pulling it out!!

Is this an SBS box? If so why don't you use ISA instead of RRAS?
What is your physical connection to the Internet? ADSL router or ADSL modem?
Does your SBS box have 2 NIC's?

I have entered this query into the incorrect newsgroup by
the looks of it. I was in a rush this morning and appear
to have posted it randomly!!!. I have put the query
including the information that you require into the
windows 2000 RAS Routing newsgroup.

Thanks for your quick reply though.
