you put created that patch in repsonse to my email back then about the encapsulation loop :-) (and it works great in preventing the kernel panic). The problem with the Cisco we have here is that even when it gets a NAK during negotiation (when offering its IP address to mpd), it will stupidly retry with the same address over and over, until negotiation fails. Justin doesn't seem to have this problem; in the log he posted, his Cisco box gives him a valid IP address after the NAK. That's why I'm interested in how he made it do that. If I take out the NAK patch, I believe I'll see kernel panics again; or were you saying that adding a host route can prevent this?
