Understood, but I'm still curious about what other distros are successfully
running on the 2.4.x series kernel and have provided ways to masq pptp,
h323, icq, and all the others.  We should work together as a community to
solve this issue, but I don't know what distros you are referring to, so I
(or anyone else for that matter) can't check how they did it.  Please let
the list in on the distros that have done this, other than clarkconnect,
which you indicated earlier.
