What do you mean, "won't work" ? If you don't give useful information nobody
will be able to help you. Your first mistake is obviously to not run the
latest, stable, version. Go get pppd-2.2.0f from your nearest friendly
archive and install it before looking for bugs. Most installation and
configuration common problems are clearly explained in the README file.

It you still have problems, then repost here with kernel version, pppd
command line and log output (with the "debug" option of course).

It seems that the new kernel PPP driver won't work !
I heard that I'm not the only ome with this problem, and I want to know
if this all the people who use the ppp2.0.d (or f) have same problems.
is this just a configuration problem or it really u bug ???

I can't accept that the installation of a PPP connection runs without
problems Windoze ( I have to use this toy to send this news ) and not
on a a LINUX system, born in the net.

No problems using (f).
Be easier to help debugging the problem if we had more information.

Could it be that your kernel is too new? Try version 2.2.0f of pppd, it worked
for me.. With older pppd versions I got errormessages like 'sorry, ppp isn't
available on this system'.

I seem to have the same problem. I updraded from a working pppd 2.1.2
to pppd 2.2.0f and it wouldn't work. After connection it locks up.
When I type route I only get the header and then it too hangs up.
After reinstalling my old pppd everything worked okay again.

Quack!
