Message-ID: <19950821090319.Zs5ZsgbhXkXoDhRrseWRvYjcKAK7X5HJ4bBqCeHdsIg@z> (raw)

Following Boyd's problems with pppclient, I had a different problem. 
My pppserver (demon internet) wants to do  (2d 15 1) compression 
which is fine. What nadgers it is that pppclient then negotiates for 
VJ TCP compression and IL compression. Demon's pppserver hasn't heard 
of IL compression (can't blame it) so sends Configure NAK. I think I 
then hit the same problem as Boyd in that pppclient keeps trying the 
same Configure Request and getting Configure NAK until the server 
starts saying Configure REJ (presumably out of frustration). The fix 
is simple. Delete the IL compression request. It was simpler than 
trying to implement Configure Req backoff. Then I get the connectiion 
up. What I haven't figured yet is what else to do to actually get the 
packets sent up the ppp link.....
