I guess first make sure that you have the release version of ppp-2.3.9. Then I suppose do a complete install; including 'make kernel' from the ppp src directory and rebuilding the kernel. I realize that v2.3.13 supposedly ships with ppp-2.3.9, (heard that somewhere) but rebuilding the kernel using the separate source has solved the problem for some people. Also make sure that you have ppp & ppp_async configured in the kernel if using a modem. If all this checks out and it still doesn't work.........surely Paul can help!
