Hi I see wath is Your problem but I use pppd 2.3.7 and conect with my
modem at a CISCO router and first time when I conect the pppd send to my
log:
.... pppd[...] Protocol-Reject for unsuported protocol 0x5072
and this is not only problem but my logs is to big after that.
Can U teach me haw is protocol 0x5072 or haw or wher to change to disapere
this message from my log?

Thank's for Your time
Bogdan Daja
