I have some problems with my pppd server (2.2.6-RELEASE). See the
following outputs and I'll try to explain what was going on.

Lines from /var/log/messages:

Apr  9 00:18:20 sigurd pppd[1011]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0
Apr  9 00:19:01 sigurd pppd[1011]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyd1
[...]
Apr  9 00:26:35 sigurd pppd[1011]: Connection terminated.
Apr  9 00:26:39 sigurd pppd[1021]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0

Apr  9 00:33:05 sigurd pppd[1021]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyd1
Apr  9 00:33:06 sigurd pppd[1021]: local  IP address 10.0.0.1
Apr  9 00:33:06 sigurd pppd[1021]: remote IP address 10.0.0.2

>From the ``last'' command:

challe   ttyd1    :PPP             Tor  9 Apr 00:33   still logged in
rui      ttyd1    :PPP             Tor  9 Apr 00:19 - 00:26  (00:07)

User ``rui'' used his Windows 95 pc between 00:19-00:26 and everything
was logged to wtmp as it should be.

User ``challe'' used his FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE pc to connect at 00:33.
He disconnected from the server at 00:38 (according to entries in
/var/log/messages). This disconnection was however not written to wtmp!

Any ideas how to fix this? This happens never when using Windows client
and _every_ time when using FreeBSD client!!
