Hi, It's quite possible that this is another latency problem introduced by my recent timer changes... the changes make the .1 second latencies into longer - possibly indefinite - latencies. To find out if this is the problem, can you try connecting interactively. You should see the same delay. You can then try again, but during the delay, pressing return a few times at the prompt should wake ppp up. Is this happening ? BTW, I recently fixed one of these bugs when ``openmode'' is set to ``passive''.... > On Tue, 26 Jan 1999, Brian Somers wrote: > > > Are you using a routing daemon ?
