[lug] Anyone with PPP multilink experience?

[Harris, James]

Thanks!  Did the kernel tweaks that you're referring to come as a result of
trying to use Multilink, or was it more from the hand rebuild of the kernel
(I'll also be doing NAT)?  I assume it was probably just selecting the right
options like forwarding and firewalling etc.

About the second leg going down.  Can you manually down it, or does it just
survive when a death occurs?

Thanks again for the info!

I'm doing this with a SUSE distro. It works pretty well most of the 
time. I'm in an area where 21k is a really fast connection. using 
multilink gets me up to ~56k speeds sometimes. At less ideal times it at 
least keeps a slower connection up instead of dropping regularly.

Let's see, setup. Make sure this is supported in your kernel, which is 
to say you have to rebuild it. Make sure you select the 
incomplete/development option or you'll never find it. I'm using NAT so 
I had to do a bunch of ther kernel tweaks too.
