Hi All,

This may not be smp specific.  It may not be a problem at all.  But
I'm desparate.. ;(

I haven't been able to keep up with current for quite some time and
was running current as of this Feb. on a Micron dual PPro box
connecting to my school using a 3Com ImpactIQ TA with kernel ppp.  It
worked perfectly for me until two days ago when I cvsup'ed the latest
source and did a make world and rebuilt my kernel.

After rebooting my machine, I found that pppd stop working anymore.
Well, it can still establish connection with my school's CISCO AS5300
in 128k but not a single packet can get thru the connection.  If I
drop the connection speed down to 56k, then it works more or less.  I
say that because I get tons of "silo overflow" messages on the
console.  Further investigation shows that sometime, I get "CPP
Config-Request timeout" when connecting in 128K.  Tried "noccp" option
with pppd but no luck.

Using NT to connect shows there's no hardware problem.  As I haven't
updated my system and keep up with the development of current for
several months, I guess this may be something obvious to you guys.
Can anyone please give me some hints on where to look for the problem?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

If this is not the right place to raise this question, please let me
know and redirect me to the proper mailing list.

TIA,

Nanbor
