Hello again,

I occasionally get kernel messages such as:

  hpcin_intr: type=2, id=36
  done.
  hpcin_intr: type=2, id=32
  done.
  hpcin_intr: type=2, id=36
  done.

If I run ppp -b on the OpenBSD machine and try to start a PPP
connection, I get something similar to the following on the Compaq:

  hpcout_hook: port 31: on
  Using interface ppp0
  Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyTX00
  sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x4d979527> <pcomp> <accomp>]
  rcvd [LCP ConfAck id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x4d979527> <pcomp> <accomp>]

I then get the kernel messages above, and at exactly that point, the
ppp daemon on the OpenBSD box dies.

I actually managed to get it to work once, for a very brief period of
time. I'm not entirely sure what I did, and I haven't been able to
reproduce it. Initially, I could ping the Compaq, but after that the
connection seemed to have died.

The Compaq is running NetBSD 1.6.2 --- would upgrading to -current
help?


Thanks,


Alex
