Where I download this patch? pppd-2.3.5 (/usr/sbin/pppd) is supplied with FreeBSD-stable and FreeBSD-current, but there doesn't appear to have been any updates to the patch level or much of the actual code since 1998 --- http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/usr.sbin/pppd/ That's refered to in various documentation as 'kernel mode' ppp (it requires `options PPP' in your kernel config) --- it's been largely superseded by 'user mode' ppp for most uses (requires the 'tun' device which is in the generic kernel already). The user ppp (/usr/sbin/ppp) does see a lot more active development --- http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/usr.sbin/ppp/, http://www.awfulhak.org/ppp.html Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way Tel: +44 1628 476614 Marlow Fax: +44 0870 0522645 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
