Summary/new Problem with PPP

Hi,

The original problem was PPP 2.2 would only allow two concurrent users.

I received a response saying to change the "2" in the

"pseudo-device ppp 2"

line in the installation instructions to the number of concurrent
connections I needed to support. We tried changing this to 16 but
the system would not boot the new kernel. We would see the following error:

 "panic - unaligned kernel access from kernel mode"

I sent this off to DEC support and they supplied a patch for this problem.

Now the system will boot with the pseudo-device line set to 16 but when
connecting more then 2 users they receive the following error:

        "PPP not supported by this kernel"


Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
