It seems I had this problem once too. I resolved it by upgrading pppd to
version 2.4.0. You can get this version at:
ftp://linuxcare.com.au/pub/ppp/ppp-2.4.0.tar.gz
You may consider reading the changes in 2.4.x on this page:
http://cyberbuzz.gatech.edu/kaboom/linux/Changes-2.4/changes24.html or in
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/CHANGES.
Good luck!
Eric
