Slip keyboard response, however, has normal throughput, and if I drop back and use the pppd from 1.1 (with the 1.1.5.1 kernel) keyboard response is also normal. By slow interactive keyboard response I mean it takes a couple of seconds to type each character. Output back is normal throughput though, such as from "ls". Ping output appears to be normal also. I am using a 14.4k modem dialing into a Xyplex terminal server. It is configured without a login account, so I run pppd in passive mode. Below is my ppp dialin script: stty 57600 < /dev/cua01 /usr/libexec/pppd connect 'chat "" "ATDT9435821" "CONNECT"' modem defaultroute crtscts passive /dev/cua01 57600 0.0.0.0: I upgraded to 1.1.5.1 from 1.1 using the patchkit. Any ideas on how to go about finding out what's squashing my pppd keyboard interaction ? Ken Whedbee kcw@hal.eng.ufl.edu
