It is possible. But you will need to learn how to play with your routing
table. Essentially you need to configure routing so that destination
addresses on your LAN are handed to your Ethernet interface, while everything
else is handed to the ppp interface. You will probably want to start by
familiarizing yourself with the ifconfig and route commands.
