have recompiled my system with kernel 2.4.2, and neither kppp nor the RedHat
dialer will work. I have gone through the how-to and the faq, editing the
appropriate files (/etc/ppp/rc.conf, & etc.) but none of the instructions
seem to work. the kppp log outputs the following messages:Â Mar

You've already gotten good advice on getting the latest pppd and
compiling or loading the RPM.  One other thing that you may have to
update if you are going to load ppp as a module is the latest modutils. 
This had me tripped up for a couple of weeks...
