I recently did the ppp installation for SunOS4.1.x patch level 6. The
installation appeared to proceed error free. Now I am trying to connect ppp
to a Sun high speed serial card HSI/S using the iflayer command

%iflayer ppp0  hih0

this yeilds a message about unknown name which I beleive is aimed at ppp0
since i can - ifconfig hih0 up - without error. any guesses why ppp0 is
unrecognized. I checked the spelling in my config file, GENERIC_HSIS_PPP,
and it looked could

pseudo-device		ppp5	

Any guesses on what could be going wrong????
thanks in advance - GSM
