What you're doing isn't the way to make that happen anyway. The way to make
that happen is for the user to enable "Use Gateway on Remote Network" in the
TCP/IP settings of thier dial-up Connectiod.

That's what it is supposed to do. I don't see anything wrong with it.
You can always clear the Routing Table and reboot to clean it up if you are
in doubt of it. From a command prompt type "Route -r", then reboot.

User accounts don't have IP addresses, only interfaces do. How in the world
did you add an IP# to a user account.
