Below is a little problem we are trying to figure out.  I am assuming User
PPP is where a user actually types ppp at a prompt and kernel ppp is
started by other than a user.  The problem I have is that with "kernel"
ppp, it uses almost 50% of the CPU.  Is this normal and is there a
solution?

Mike

i'm getting that too.  it's not really an issue here since we use our machine
running ppp just as a firewall, but it's something i've always wondered about.
let me know if you find anything.  enjoy...
