If you're running the version of ppp that comes with FreeBSD-2.2.5, it's a known problem (see the ERRATA.TXT file on www.FreeBSD.org). You can either upgrade your version of FreeBSD (it was fixed before 2.2.6 was released) or you could upgrade your version of ppp via http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html If you upgrade ppp, make sure you glance through the README.changes file. You should probably re-browse the man page too as a lot of things have changed (but not too much WRT your configuration). > Thanks in advance. > > Mukti A.
