I've been making extensive use of userland ppp, and am basically satisfied by it. However, I've been trying to employ the packet filtering features, but have been meeting with no luck. Using ppp.conf.filter.sample as a model, I placed filter rules in my ppp.conf file. ppp did not complain about any errors, but also silently failed to provide the reqested filtering. Is the filtering really supported? I know the ppp package was evolving by leaps and bounds, maybe I'm trying to take advantage of something still in beta... -- Brian Reichert reichert@numachi.com 37 Crystal Ave. #303 Derry NH 03038-1713 USA Intel architecture: the left-hand path
