Hi,
we are just setting up a Linux server (Kernel 2.2.10) for incoming ppp dial-up
connections using both analog connections and ISDN (HDLC).

The logins are ok, but I would like to get some hints from experts, if
something still may  be "tuned" for better performance. I could not find
detailed info on those pppd lines. Here are some pppd lines written into
var/log/messages when a user call comes in. I would be happy if anyone can
comment on this ;-)

[PAP AuthReq id=0x1 user="l.werner" password="566gh342"]
The Login PW ist shown here in clear letters, which is not so good. Someone
could scan /messages and get all our user PWs. Any way to suppress this?

pppd[5665]: Unsupported protocol (0x802b) received
What does that mean? The ppp conection is working, but I still have this
message here. Can I ignore this?

buddha pppd[5665]: Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP

???

buddha pppd[5665]: Compression disabled by peer.

???

Thanks for your help!
