- ppp-0.3.tar.z
- =============
- (Point-To-Point Protocol for network connections over serial line)
-
-
- This is just a hack so I could use ppp on the NeXT. It will probably
- crash your machine one day. No support is offered, but you may send
- bug reports anyway (I might have some spare time).
-
- This ppp implementation consists of two parts: ppp and ppp_reloc.
- The ppp program is run on each end of the ppp connection. ppp_reloc
- is a kernel loadable module (see next-config for an example of
- loading the module at boot time).
-
- Optionally one may use the 'chat' program to automatically dialup
- the remote host. I've added an option to ppp to call a dial script
- (see chatcmd for an example).
-
- You have to run everything as root if you don't set the setuid flags.
-
- Note that if you are using chat, you should pass the first argument
- of the chat command to chat, like this:
-
- chat -p $* -l LCK..cufa ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT BUSY "" AT OK ATS0=3DT2914623 CONNECT "" ogin: ACCOUNT ssword: \\qPASSWORD
-
- This lets chat place the right process id in the lock file.
