pppoe, fix old protocol handler
Hi,
I'm using 2.5(.73-mm3, but this also applies to earlier versions) and I'm getting tons (~6000/min) of "fix old protocol handler <pppoed>!" in my syslog on a quite loaded adsl line. For the time being I just commented out the annoying code fragment and I didn't find any regressions yet (uptime ~20days). So what's the correct way of getting rid of this message? I tried recompiling pppd and pppoe, but that doesn't solve it. Is there a patched version somewhere.
Thanks,
Jan

Current 2.5.x should not print those messages anymore, pppoe has been converted over to not be an "old protocol" any more.
