I have scanned the newsgroups, but find nothing relating to this =
problem.

PPP seems to be ignoring the lowest numbered and highest numbered =
filters when the "set filter ..." commands are edited into ppp.conf

If I place the following commands in ppp.conf:

  set filter dial 0 deny icmp
  set filter dial 1 deny 0/0 198.168.0.0/16
  set filter dial 6 permit 0/0 0/0

then do "show filter dial", either by running ppp in interactive mode or =
by connecting to a diagnostic port, I get:

1  deny     0.0.0.0/0 198.168.0.0/16

Just that one line! If I then (re)enter the missing filter commands =
interactively, the show command produces:

0  deny     0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 icmp
1  deny     0.0.0.0/0 198.168.0.0/16
6  permit   0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0

after which the filter seems to work as intended.

Any idea what gives?

Thanks,

Carl
