If the Linux machines are connected with a PPP link, then you don't need
an Ethernet link.  Ethernet and PPP are both link-layer protocols.  That's
orthogonal and counter-productive.

(A reason some of us consider PPPOE to be an abomination.)

You probably just want to add a routing table entry, and then each will
happily route IP packets between the systems....
