This has been a interesting problem. I have two machines one is 
Intel 133 and the other is Intel 166MMX

I tried this on both machines and I get a core dump (bus error)

My configuration are:

fbsd 2.2.6 32mg  166MMX 
fbsd 2.2.6 32mg  133    the both have the same motherboard/bios


ppp.conf

default:
 set log Phase Chat Connect Carrier LCP IPCP CCP tun command
 set device /dev/cuaa0
 set speed 115200
 deny lqr
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT  OK-AT-OK  
ATE1Q0 OK \\ dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

isp:
 set phone 883-0030
 set login ""
 set authname *****
 set authkey  *****
 set ifaddr 209.161.16.162/0 209.161.16.136/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0

now I have tailed the ppp.log file to watch what is doing throughout the 
connection. I do get alot of hdlc errors 

the problem seems to start happening when I run Netscape 4.05
and try to connect to a web site. It has a hard time looking up the dns 
entries which sometimes does not even get. (DNS lookup failure)

And if it does finally resolve the name it loads the page then stalls
and then ppp core dumps. This happens on both machines.

what would this be associated with?

do I need to look for newer ppp code.
could it be a i386 general protection fault.
