I have been trying to setup EQL on my Redhat (RH5.2, kernel 2.2.7, ppp
2.3.7) box and have had nothing but bad luck.  I am down to thinking
that I don't properly have VJ header compression turned off.  I use
netcfg to set up the interfaces and there is an entry for 'PPP Options:'
that I put novj in.  All this does is makes the entry PPPOPTIONS=novj in
the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0.  The debug output is
the same whether I add this option or not.  Here is a sample of the
output:

Serial connection established.

The lines that have <conpress VJ... are the ones that I _think_ tell me
that the compression is turned on.  These never go away.  FWIW, if I put
something in that entry form that isn't in the pppd options list (like
NOVJ for example...uppercase), it immediately reports a list of some
available options in the console, but curiously novj is not one of them.

Can someone please help me get this VJ turned off?  It has to be the
only thing keeping me from getting this EQL working.  Thanks.
