I try to bring up a connection between my PC at home and a SS1 at work.
I install pppd-1.01 on the SS1 and launch it with

pppd passive debug netmask 255.255.255.0 vjmode draft /dev/ttya 9600 192.70.65.40:192.70.65.52

On the other side, I ran ppp.exe from the package ncsappp.zip :

ppp /c 2 /s 4800 /d atdt<phone number>

with the default config.ppp .

I got an error from pppd :

Can someone explain me where I am wrong ? 

Or : is there anything more recent then these free versions of PPP ?

Yes, about:

I had the same problem. After seeing the missing ALLSTATIONS, I
suspect the merit.edu ppp.exe to send compressed address and control
fields as soon as negotiated, whether in LCP negotiation phase or not.
After using '-ac -pc vjmode draft', the connection works relatively fine. See
the PPP FAQ posting for the progresses concerning 

a) enabling protocol or address/control field compression
b) deciding who is the real culprit...

and details.
