Yup. Except I didn't do it alone - many members of this list helped, and the initial patch was written by Dr. Dani Arbel. Later on we extended and improved his work, adding support for more buggy modem, and I folded it back into the official pptp sources. > I use a cable modem on netvision without the quicks. There are some ADSL modems which don't need the quirks support either. Anyone using the PCI or USB ones with linux? -- calm down, it's *only* ones and zeros. http://syscalltrack.sf.net/ http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~mulix/
