I haven't used pppd for a while and these are the obvious questions: The latest pppd appears to be version 2.4.7, so I would suggest testing with that version if yours is older. Debian Stable, for example, is still on 2.4.6. If that doesn't help, I suppose it's time for a bug report. Have there been relevant upgrades at your end or is this most likely an ISP equipment change? If you think you have a chance of contacting Level 2 (or whatever they call it) support at the ISP, it's probably worth trying, as they may be able to report it to their vendor. I know this is totally obvious... I assume it's the same ISP in all cases. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
