- The PPP support for this kernel requires the 2.2.0 version of the
- pppd daemon. You will find the current version of the daemon on
- sunsite.unc.edu in the /pub/Linux/system/Network/serial directory.
-
- Sunsite has many mirror sites. Please feel free to obtain it from
- a mirror site close to you.
-
- If you attempt to use a version of pppd which is not compatible
- then you will have some error condition. It usually is reflected
- in that an ioctl operation will generate a fatal error.
-
- Please do not use earlier versions of the 2.2 package. If you
- obtained a copy from merit.edu or bellatrix then please get an
- update from the sunsite site.
-
- The CCP (Compression Control Protocol) which is supported by this
- code is functional. You will need a compatible BSD compressor on
- your peer site to use the code.
-
- The BSD compression code will only build as a loadable module. There
- was an earlier version which would build it into the kernel but that
- functionality has been removed for various reasons.
