It means that your machine sent a request to negotiate compression on
the link using CCP (the Compression Control Protocol), and that the peer
doesn't know that protocol at all. Depending on the PPP you're using,
you probably want to use the 'noccp' option. Even so, the way PPP works,
this message is harmless and your link should still work if this happens.
