According to the manual page for pppd ...

If no asyncmap option is given, no async character map will be negotiated 
for the receive direction; the peer should then escape _all_ control 
characters.

I would think that asyncmap 0 says "don't escape _any_ control characters", 
wouldn't "escape _all_ control characters" (the default according to the 
manual page) be asyncmap ffffffff?
