---- SYSTEM ERRATA INFORMATION:
o The ppp program fails to work, citing a missing shared library
called "libdes.so.3.0".
Fix: There are two possible fixes: The first and easiest fix is to
simply install the des distribution with /stand/sysinstall, remembering
to pick a site that will allow you to export it if you're outside
the United States and Canada (ftp.freebsd.org and ftp.internat.freebsd.org
both fall into this category). The second fix, which doesn't involve
having to fetch DES bits, is to install the ppp sources in
/usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp and rebuild them. The sources are "smart" enough
to know that the DES library isn't on the system and won't create a
binary which depends on it. Note: If you choose the latter fix, you also
will not be able to use MSCHAP (Microsoft Win*) style authentication.
