Again, I'm not sure this is the right place (but, then, what is?), but
I'm seeing curious behaviour on my PPP link -- it appears extremely noisy.

tcpdump shows:

16:06:16.072151 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:16.088334 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:16.088885 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:18.970360 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:19.084597 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:19.099961 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:19.100560 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:21.980473 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:22.095319 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:22.108185 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:22.108714 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:24.990361 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:25.102583 O    8 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:25.115417 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]
16:06:25.115951 O   13 03 80fd: [|ip]

three packets of undecipherable origin or type roughly once every three
seconds.  Is this LCP activity or what?

What's that [|ip] mean?  I couldn't find it in the man page.

BSD -> Solaris:		It could be worse.
UNIX -> NT:		It's worse.
