The rest of the line looks like this:
Jul 27 01:30:19 darkstar pppd[295]: rcvd [proto=0xfd] 00 e7 e1 ac 09 a3
15 40 59 00 3f 59 01 b1 86 c8 ae e9 1e 11 b3 46 cf 1b 44 6d 31 b5 46 d7
1b 64 6d b1 b7 46 df 1b 84 6e 31 b9 46 e7 1b a4 6e b1 bb 46 ef 1b c4 6f
31 bd 46 f7 1b e4 6f b1 bf 46 ff 1c 04 70 31 c1 47 07 1c 24 70 b1 c3 47
0f
And the next 20 lines in the log file look similar but without the
'rcvd [proto=0xfd]'. It seems to get out of sync or something, as my
connection always hangs during these messages are written to the log
file and there is line reset or something after while, but it seems not
help as 'rcvd [proto=0xfd]' comes
up again it begins all from the start. After a while it might work or my
connection is terminated. All this may last 10 minutes.
For details have a look in the log file I've attached in my last mail.
Are these hexdumps normal or a bug in ppp ?
