That's just extra [unrelated] info in the log clippings I posted. I
should have stated what's obvious to me...this is a PPP "Server". It had
30something pppd's running at the time.

I have 64 ports (Cyclades...thus the ttyC? device mentioned in the log
clipping) in this box and regularly run 20-60 copies of pppd. This
particular box has been in service for "some time" (many months), so I'm
confident it's not a config problem at my end. Perhaps the client's PPP
implementation did something wacky, but that shouldn't have caused the
chaos his pppd process started.
