Disable pred1 compression. iijppp has a very broken implementation of the CCP layer if the remote peer doesn't speak pred1. > Oh, a second question, on my incoming lines, after the modems connect, > there is no login prompt, untill I hit enter, is there a way to tell > getty to send the login prompt as soon as Carrier Dectect comes high?

Non-local lines do only connect after the carrier has been detected, and this will cause the first login prompt. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
