It's not broken :) Works for me on my 1.3 i386 machine... however, the
pppd manpage says:
active-filter filter-expression
[ ... ]
being interpreted by the shell. This option is
currently only available under NetBSD, and then
only if both the kernel and pppd were compiled with
PPP_FILTER defined.
The mac68k GENERIC kernel doesn't have PPP_FILTER (neither does the i386
GENERIC). So, you'll have to compile your own kernel for it to work.
