Hi all

I've managed to get PPPD up and running on my FreeBSD system but do get a 
lot of messages as follows:

1. Aug 3 15:32:47 GILBERT /kernel: sio0: 58 more interrupt-level buffer 
overflows (total 29348)

2. Aug 3 15:33:49 GILBERT pppd[16079]: ioctl (TIOCSETD): Inappropriate ioctl 
for device

PPPD seems to work OK but why these messages? Do I have to start worrying? 
Is my setup still not 100%? What gives?

TIA
