If it helps, the only change i haven't tested (IE i've gone through the ppp/netgraph/libnetgraph revisions since 06-09) to see if it's the cause is this one:
archie 2000/06/21 16:01:07 PDT
Modified files:
lib/libnetgraph Makefile msg.c netgraph.3
Log:
- Make sure the message token returned by NgSendMsg() is non-negative
- Have NgSendAsciiMsg() return the same token as NgSendMsg()
- Document that NgSendMsg() and NgSendAsciiMsg() return the token
- Add MLINKS for the functions defined in netgraph(3)
every other change to PPP/netgraph/libnetgraph since 06-09 i've tested, and it makes no difference.
