ppp -alias did not exhibit this problem. Which I thought was odd because
of how natd + ppp -alias shares the same code.  Its a p90 and only aliases
about 5-6 hosts at most. I have thought of two ideas, my current mtu/mru
is 296/296 I might try raising that to see if that has any effect. And I
also was told to try disabling tcp_extensions in sysconfig.
