Well, I was never able to resolve why my ftp sessions have errors in 
them, although i did post some questions regarding pppd when i first 
became aware of download problems. By the way I was getting so pissed at 
the slow download speeds until discovering a change that needed to be 
made in my /etc/ttys file which needed to match my /etc/ppp-up file for 
the default pppd /dev/tty00 19200 speed setting, which I uppped to 
57600. Pointing me to the man pppd or chap pages I don't think is going 
to solve this one. Here's some of my unresolved ftp errors using ppp:
