	I've been trying for awhile now to get ppp working between my home
	machine and the machine which I use at work, and I'm very close
	too, but yet as expectation builds my connection fails at the last
	moment. This is a snipet from where I tried to telnet to work (muse)
	from my home machine (athena):

	athena% telnet muse
	Trying 192.33.115.85 ...
	Connected to muse.
	Escape character is '^]'.


	SunOS UNIX (muse)

	Connection closed by foreign host.
	athena%

	It hangs seemingly just before the login prompt!!! The version of ppp 
	which I'm using is the PD version (ppp-sunos4.1.pl6) with some
	patches for memory leaks. I tried to follow the instructions from
	Karl Fox in the 'ppp/INSTALL/README' file closely. 

	I've been logging in through a 'annex' terminal server, and running
	ppp on the remote machine from within a Bourne shell. Several
	packets go back and forth before I get the above output. So I wouldn't
	think it would be control/binary characters being caught by the
	annex or the shell, but it could be.

	Also, 'tip' doesn't seem to work for dialing up and connecting with
	ppp anyone know why this is, and how to get it to work???

	I'd really appreciate any recommendations.

							many thanks,
