Anytime pppd either starts up or ends a connection I get the following errors in
/var/log/messages
Mar 27 02:54:49 dialup kernel: pc_ioctl IOCTL not implemented: 8004745ax 
Mar 27 02:54:49 dialup kernel: pc_ioctl IOCTL not implemented: 40047451x 
Mar 27 02:54:49 dialup kernel: pc_ioctl IOCTL not implemented: 40047459x 
Mar 27 02:54:49 dialup kernel: pc_ioctl IOCTL not implemented: 4008744bx 

The connection is successful, and PPP connections work just fine.  However the
module that is the driver for the serial ports reports an incorrect number of
processes using him:

[root@dialup /etc]# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
epca                   87596  27 

The epca module only has 5 serial devices connected to him.   However, anytime
someone logs in using ppp, an additional process is added to the "Used by"
number.  When the ppp connection closes, it doesn't go back down by one.  So I
end up with a number like 27 when in fact there are only 5 processes using the
module.
 
Any ideas? Thanks...
