Just to complicate things, one of the links just went down so I kill
-TERM'd the ppp process at the originating router. This is what things
look like at the other end now:

 9999  ??  I      0:00.13 /usr/local/sbin/mgetty cuaa1
10055  ??  I      0:00.13 /usr/local/sbin/mgetty cuaa4

mgetty running, it appears carrier loss has been detected on both lines...

10056  ??  Ss     0:00.27 /usr/sbin/ppp -direct mp
16792  ??  Is     0:00.01 /usr/sbin/ppp -direct mp

unfortunately, ppp is still running. ;-(

Off to try the other version now.

Cheers.
