Hello People:

I'm using FreeBSD 2.1.6R. My question is with iijppp ppp, ie user mode ppp.

When I envoke ppp in the "-auto" mode, where is supposed to dial out when it 
detects a packet on the out going interface, it only seems to dial when there
is an out going UDP packet such as a routed packet. Telnet and ping don't seem
to initiate dialling.

Have I set something up wrongly, or have other people experienced the same
thing? Does the version in "current" display the same behavior?

Best regards,
Ian Wynne
