The new ppp dynamically allocates ppp devices. The message you're getting is ppp zapping your old device entries so they can now be dynamically allocated. All _should_ work as before. If it doesn't, you should probably join linux-ppp -- I'm just parroting what I picked up there. Mike. -- "I'm a dinosaur.
