My user PPP does not work when trying to connect to my ISP. I can
only use kernel PPP and that works fine. However, I know that I have
user PPP set up correctly because it works with other ISPs. Just not
mine.

Unfortunatly, this was a long time ago, and I do not have the log
anymore. But I do remember what the last entries had to do with
before the disconnect. "Bad vjcomp header recieved". I would get that
several times and then it would just hang up. This was after it
negotiated an IP address usually. It would give me an IP address, and
then a few seconds later just disconnect for no apparent reason.
According to the logs, those were the last entries before the
disconnect.

No problems at all with kernel PPP though.

Another interesting side note: I am also unable to connect to this
ISP with BeOS, although once again, with BeOS I do not have any
problems with another ISP.
