Raymond Smith <raymonds at uq.net.au> moved upon the face of the 'Net and spake thusly:

"debug".

When debug is on, there should be a whole lot of stuff that looks like 

rcvd [LCP somestuff]
sent [LCP morestuff]

depending on software version and config).

If you send me that, I can probably help....
