Linux pppd and the MS PPP products have no common CCP -data compression-
algorithms in common. It's better to disable it in both rather than to
uselessly negotiate.
I'm not sure what enabling "error control" means regarding PPP since a type
of CRC is a part of the PPP specification and don't use MS anymore.
