[oclug] SME Server + IStop

[Jim Little]

I'm having some problems getting my SME 6.0 server to connect to IStop using 
PPPOE.  pppoe keeps timing out waiting for PAD0.  IStop's proprietary Windows 
client connects so I know my wiring etc. is ok.  Anyone else run into this 
problem?

Here is an excerpt from /var/log/messages:

etcetera ad infinitum.

Any help apppreciated.
