Subject:   User ppp broken still?

I've been using ppp for quite a while, but I've had a few problems.  My system
is current as of Jan 30.  What happens is that a lot of the time I'm ftping 
something, the link will freeze if I try to do anything else.  However, if I
don't use much bandwidth, it will stay up for hours.

I tried compiling ppp from current, but after using it for a few minutes, it
starts gobbling up all my CPU, and I have to use -9 to kill it.  It is
completely unusable.

So whats the deal?  I'd love to use kernel ppp, although I need the dial on
demand and aliasing. :(  Will user ppp ever be reliable?

Other things... I'm using and MTU and MRU of 576, lqr off, pred1 off, over
a 28.8.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris Csanady
