I tried disabling lqr and installing the new version of ppp, and have now run into a different problem. I believe that this was the problem all along, as some of the other minor abnormalities I was seeing seem to confirm a device problem. Here it is: I load ppp, and type term to enter terminal mode. The following messages come up on the screen: ppp[177]: tun0: Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa1: Device not configured Failed to open modem. Doing a MAKEDEV didn't clear things up, either. Any thoughts?
