Like many others, I had diald, dialmon, and ppp all working just fine
under RedHat 5.2 with kernel 2.0.36. I then upgraded the kernel to
2.2.1, ipchains, and I think the rest of the nessicary pieces parts to
complete the upgrade. Unfortunattly, now the ppp link is VERY unstable.
It will die at random times with an error message in /var/log/messages
that says "link died on remote end". It will then try to reconnect but
it's unusable being this unstable. I've seen some discussion on the
loops about this. My question, is this something I have to live with for
now until an upgrade to something comes out, or are most people not
having this problem? I've tried things like "novj" in the
/etc/ppp/options file, removing the crtscrt line in the diald.conf file,
added some lines about ppp compression in the conf.modules file, etc.
Nothing has made it better or worse. I hate to go back to the 2.036
kernel, but everything worked there.

PS. Different topic, but smbmount no longer works now either. (Samba
