Hi I created a script to kill my ppp, sleep for 30 seconds and restart ppp, this seems to work just fine, but also I have a cronjob to do this sometimes every 2 hours. I seem to have had this problem with ppp since 4.7-STABLE, but only with the server iniating the connection, not the one being dialed into. I get a load of rejected compression errors on the server side. I suspect a bug within ppp somewhere. Mark
