- When you say multiple PPP interfaces do you mean multiple /dev/ entries
- like /dev/ppp[0-4], for example? Or do you mean something else that one
- would have to configure into the code? Right now, just to try and get
- my ppp stuff working i have configured my machine to have the same
- internet network portion (142.49.30.1) as the system at work that i am
- calling (142.49.1.23). However, it doesn't seem to be communicating and
- it panics when i have a PPP link of some sort established and then do a
- netstat -r. It obviously isn't comletely connected since a ping of the
- other system times out. (Esix 4.0.3a)
