[MiNT] Minor mystery solved

[Jim DeClercq <jimd@panix.com>]

Drive died, short reads getting more frequent, got new drive for 
external box, and reloaded EasyMiNT. Dial but no connect.

Do not know if it will work a second time, but changing the peers 
file used by pppd to specify both name and host for "user" 
produced satisfactory results. Up until now, doing that only in 
the pap-secrets file was enough.

That leaves another minor mystery to wonder about, why a computer 
did something different than usual, but I have MiNT (1.15.12) 
dialing and connecting again.

Actually, did this reloading EasyMiNT routing several times, and 
got a third minor mystery. Could ping or traceroute by name, but 
not telnet or ftp. There was a bus error at the end of loading 
the rpm rpm, and that might have done it. First bus error in a 
very long time.
