[-- Attachment #1 --] I have scanned the newsgroups, but find nothing relating to this problem. PPP seems to be ignoring the lowest numbered and highest numbered filters when the "set filter ..." commands are edited into ppp.conf If I place the following commands in ppp.conf: set filter dial 0 deny icmp set filter dial 1 deny 0/0 198.168.0.0/16 set filter dial 6 permit 0/0 0/0 then do "show filter dial", either by running ppp in interactive mode or by connecting to a diagnostic port, I get: 1 deny 0.0.0.0/0 198.168.0.0/16 Just that one line! If I then (re)enter the missing filter commands interactively, the show command produces: 0 deny 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 icmp 1 deny 0.0.0.0/0 198.168.0.0/16 6 permit 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 after which the filter seems to work as intended. Any idea what gives?
