What is the secret to this sparsely documented feature? I tried various numbers < 10 to no avail. Show debug always gives me something different and I'm seeing no pattern. Another big problem seems to be ppp being unable to cope with the presence of mgettys' /var/spool/LCK..cuaa1 file. The same applies for kermit. So I wonder if it's a mgetty issue. Somehow I cannot get ppp to negotiate the IP address with the ISPs' ppp. --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@gil.physik.rwth-aachen.de
