I have tried, but so far unsuccessfully, to get this current system to crash. It won't. I did the exact opposite of you. Instead of going back to pre-lite2 merge, I CVSUP last night. Make world completed successfully and I rebuilt my kernel. FWIW, I start ppp with ppp -auto -alias demand from my /etc/rc.local file. I usually leave fetchmail running in the daemon mode where it connects once/hr to my ISP to D/L my email, so the connection is up and down all day. I tried killing ppp and leaving it idle for a while, but it's still up. Burton --- Brought to you by a 100% Micro$oft free system.
