All I can say is that all the hooks are > there already. Just out of interest.. Are these hooks for "payload encapsulation" or "encryption"? Naming could matter.. PPP's CCP hooks can be used for providing encryption. However, if there were explicit encryption hooks, there would be problems since crypto hooks apparently fall under the ITAR= regulations while generic hooks do not. Not that this seems to be a majo= r = problem in practice though, a large number of net tools seem to have = #ifdefs etc for calling encryption stuff (eg: kerberos).
