Yes; under Volkerding Slackware'96 (k.v. 2.0; "based on non-
dynamic version [of ppp.c] from ppp-2.1.2d), telnet is 
excruciatingly slow.  traceroute doesn't have any output 
other than the header.  nslookup doesn't work.  the same 
authentication at the same speed to the same phone number 
under Win3.11 Trumpet Winsock works well.

Please let me know what you think this could be.

Sincerely,
:James Salsman
