Hi,

I have a problem with pppd. I run pppd and get what appears to be a good
connection. But when I try to run any program over the connection, such
as telnet or ftp, or even ping, the program just hangs until I do
Control-C to stop it. Can anyone see what is wrong here? I run pppd like
this:

pppd call icubed

(Icubed is my service provider).

Here is a log from /var/log/messages of a connection:
