On occasion, I get the following errors:

Nov 13 19:20:00 gateway ppp[201]: Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa3: Interrupt
ed system call 
Nov 13 19:20:00 gateway ppp[201]: Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa3: Interrupt
ed system call 
Nov 14 03:20:05 gateway ppp[201]: Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa3: Interrupt
ed system call 
Nov 14 03:20:05 gateway ppp[201]: Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa3: Interrupt
ed system call 

It's annoying, since my ppp link drops and then redials.  Is there a way to fix 
it?  It's not consistant when this happens.  I'm not in at 19:20 or 03:20, nor 
is anyone else, so there is not a load on the system.  The only time it happens
during the day is when we are putting a strain on the dialup connection 
(multiple ftp sessions from different machines on the LAN.)

gateway is acting as a router for a 5 machine LAN using aliasing.

I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.1 with the 971026 ppp sources from Brian.

This has been happening for a while, but I had the chance to psot, so that is
what I am doing.
