- Using the default PPP options file which specifies the "bsdcomp 10,10" pppd option, negotiation with Netcom's PPP server has been problematic since early June, 1996. Negotiation succeeds, ipcp comes up, but then the Netcom server resends a negotiation packet causing ipcp to be brought down followed by successful renegotiation bringing ipcp up. This causes ip-up to run, then ip-down, and then ip-up again. Depending on what is being done in ip-up and ip-down, this multiple repeated execution, possibly concurrently, can cause problems.\
-\
- However, BSD compression negotiation is rejected by the Netcom server. So by disabling BSD compression negotiation (i.e., specifying the "-bsdcomp" instead of the "bsdcomp 10,10" pppd option), this problem seems to disappear.

-You'll have to excuse me if this is categorized wrong. I'm a PPP newbie.\
-\
-I'm running PPP 2.2.046 on a NeXTstation Turbo Color w/32MB RAM to access my ISP over a modem. Certain operations cause my system to thrash until I break into the NMI to stop it. When I look at messages in the NMI, at the very end are several errors from PPP indicating that it's out of 'netbuffers' I'm not sure if PPP is causing the trash, but the netbuffer errors seemed to point to it. A friend of mine running the same configuration has the same problems.\
-\
-I'm looking for a way to recreate the problem on demand, and will forward that on when I find it. The trashing usually appears while using OmniWeb 2.0.1 from Lighthouse Design, but I've had similar problems using NetSurfer. The problem seems to happen much faster with NetSurfer.\
-\
-Again, I'll try to get you more details. Does this sound like a PPP problem?

-[rvose@ix.netcom.com Mon Jul 1 04:37:03 CDT 1996]\
-Last week I had submitted report indicating that my NeXTstation Color Turbo machine ran out of network buffers and thrashed to the point of crashing. The tracking ID assigned was 16.\
-\
-I believe that this problem may have been due to my swapfile size growing beyond the high-water mark. My machine crashed several times this evening (thrashing) while connected and I happened to notice that the swapfile size was pushing the hiwat limit. I increased the hiwat limit on the file from 40 MB (which is the NeXT default) to 105 MB (the partition size where the file residess - it's on its own drive) and voila! No more thrashing. I've been connected over PPP and hitting the system hard with network transactions with ZERO difficulties.\
-\
-Just wanted to pass that info along. I'm not sure if the combination of the system hitting the hiwat mark on the swapfile + PPP needing more resources caused the thrashing problem, but it seems reasobable.\
-\
-Thanks...\

- Sending the pre-OS 4.0 lookupd a USR2 signal causes it to toggle logging, \

-resolv.conf and send resolv.conf a HUP signal in pppd's ip-up.\
-\
- Note that sending the OS 4.0 lookupd a HUP signal won't cause it to \
-restart. Restarting it manually will leave the system unusable until a \
-reboot :-( NeXT is aware of this problem.\
