What's your kernel version?
Do you have libpcap installed? 

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 engelsman - 09-03-06 05:42  
---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
kernel version is 2.6.17.11
libpcap is 0.9.3

I did have ppp-2.4.3 installed before I tried the update.

OK, now that I look at the complete activity log, the part related to
the 'lunar update' shows that there was a problem loading a ppp patch.

What is a little worrying though, is that the old ppp was lrm'd even
though the lin of the new ppp failed. Should this have happened?

it seems that the mppe patch have some problems when it's compiled on some
systems. i downgrade the ppp version back to the good ol' 2.4.3 version
until a solution is found.

the 2.4.4 version works well without the mppe patch. however i think that
downgrading the version to 2.4.3 is the best solution for the moment.

I'm sorry florin .. but running away from the problem doesn't fix the bug.
The patch has to be fixed.

engelsman .. did you actually get that patch .. is it resident on your
system? (Look into /var/spool/lunar)

the patch can be find at
http://www.nikhef.nl/~janjust/ppp/ppp-2.4.4-eaptls-mppe-0.9no_ifdefs.patch

i've tried to fix it but it generates other compile errors and the patch
is 72 Kb long.
