Description Glenn Johnson 2000-04-08 17:00:01 UTC
        NetBIOS packets will keep a ppp link up longer than desirable in
ppp -auto mode. This would apply to people with a network using Samba
and ppp -auto as their Internet link. Example filter entries are in
/usr/share/examples/ppp/ppp.conf.sample to show how to keep NetBIOS
packets from triggering a dial. The enclosed patch adds example entries
to show how to keep NetBIOS packets from keeping the connection alive
unnecessarily.

Fix: Apply the enclosed patch to
        /usr/src/share/examples/ppp/ppp.conf.sample.
