I have an odd problem with PPP for my Dial on Demand connection. I had it all setup running tickety boo on a 4.0 box. I then moved it for compelling reasons to a 4.2 box. Same settings etc, same ppp.conf (different serial port) same kernel options as applicable, same everything. Now I have this odd problem. When I dial in, a connection is made but then there is a delay of maybe 2 minutes before any responses occur, to DNS lookups say. It is almost as though PPP is suspended for some reason, since I log everything and it isn't saying much. After this time, it works fine. I have stripped the connection down to a minimum for testing no firewall, no PPP filters, nothing in ppp.linkup. Still the same. Does anyone have a clue. I am de-skilled on this one!
