I know it *WAS* here, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.  Can some please
either report, or mail me a copy of the patches to CGD's driver to get rid
of the damn SILO OVERFLOW errors??  I get TONS of them all of the time, really
annoying..  Also, if anybody has any idea how to setup a PPP connection to
'Merit/Michnet' (A local internet provider with dialin 'terminal servers')
PLEASE let me know.. I can use the chat script to dialup merit, and login
starting a PPP session, then the PPPD starts up and SAYS it's running, but
after taking a look at the code, it says it's running before it even knows
if it is working properly itself or not.. The problem with this dialup
crap is that I need to retrieve my IP address each time I dial into the
system and setup the appropriate tables and routing information..  Does
anybody know of an easy way of doing this, or perhaps have already done it?
