Re: Total Confusion



I'm beginning to think you've got some weird kernel running, what with
your reporting of 2.0.38 under debian 2.2r3, and with this ppp
issue.  When you configured the system, did you include ppp (in the net
section) as a module? Is it in /etc/modules?  If not, try including it.

Also, just to verify: what's the output of uname -a?
