Hi all,
I need to set up PPP from a Windows 98 client to a Linux box.
The connection is successful, but in the logs it says
"compression disabled by peer"
My /etc/conf.modules says:
alias ppp-compress-21: bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-26: ppp_deflate
On linux boxen connecting to this machine, it sets up
bsd compression and compresses correctly.
I also set up
vj-max-slots 16
in /etc/ppp/options.ttySxx
What type of braindead compression does 'bloze
use? I need to get compression going on this
machine, because if I ping to a Linux
box with compresson as follows:
ping -s 4096 192.168.1.1
I get rtt times of +- 200ms
To the 'doze box I get rtt of 2000ms +
Anybody knows how to fix this?
Tom
