I just upgraded to 1.3 and my ppp setup quit working. Specifically the
active filter died. In my options file I had the lines :

idle 1500
active-filter "udp or (tcp and not tcp port ntp)"

Under 1.2 whenever there was ip traffic pppd would dial out to the isp and
connect. After 25 minutes of no user traffic the connection would be
closed down. With 1.3 I get the complaint that active-filter can't be used
due to incorrect iotcl's in the log and the modem never hangs up. So did
the generic configuration change between 1.2 and 1.3 and if so what option
should I add to enable active-filtering?

Thanks,

eric
