ppp trouble with 5.3-stable

Hi,

a few days ago a did an upgrade from something pre 5.3-rc7 to the latest 
5.3-stable. Since then I have only trouble with ppp. My computer is connectet 
to the internet via pppoe (FreeNet in Germany). My provider closes the 
connection once every 24 ours, but ppp now fails to redial.

Even killing and restarting ppp only worked once. The other times I had to 
reboot.

The interactive interface of ppp is broken, too:

kairo:~# pppctl /var/run/tun0.socket
Password:
PPP ON kairo> show
Use ``show ?'' to get a list.
PPP ON kairo> show ?
(o) = Optional context, (c) = Context required
Connection closed
kairo:~#

Almost every command behaves that way.

That problem is solved. I had to explicitly disaable eveery possible 
compression protocil, then it worked. The strange thing ist that it workt 
before withou disabling that protocols.

This problem still exists. I have the impression that pppctl has a problem 
with shell meta characters.

Has your ISP upgraded their routers to Cisco IOS 12.3?  I hit a similar bug 
in a ppp session on OpenBSD :/

cheers,
