>Release: FreeBSD 2.1-960627-SNAP i386
>Environment:
Using user-mode ppp in auto mode.
>Description:
If ppp ever gets to the line:
LogPrintf(LOG_PHASE_BIT, "** 1 Too many ECHO packets are lost. **\n");
It will get there every time until killed, because the counter "lqrsendcnt"
does not get reset.
>How-To-Repeat:
Best way to reproduce this is to have the receiving end refuse to
anwer pings for a while, then bring it back.
>Fix:
