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.
