Um, I spoke too soon I'm afraid.  Yes, receiving faxes is now working
fine... but dialing in and establishing a PPP connection is now broken!
When I try dialling in using Windows NT, I now get an error, "TCP/IP CP
reported error 738: The server did not assign an address."  If I
specifically tell Windows NT my static IP address then it does not give me
the error 738, but it gives me a whole heap of CRC errors while I'm
connected and no packets are passed.

PPP was working fine until I added "switchbd 19200" to my mgetty.config
(yes, this was the problem that was preventing me from receiving faxes... I
could have sworn I tried adding that line before, but perhaps I hadn't
reloaded mgetty's config file).

Here is the logfile, if it gives anyone any obvious clues I would much
appreciate some advice...
