Its already in the development sources (Archie had a look at it already) and it works with mppd. It was really quite easy, although if Archies daemonnews article had been available at that time i wrote it, it would have been even easier :-) > when this is done the netgraph PPP nodes (which can support > these compression types will be usable. In the mppd i worked with (looking ... mpd3.0b1/mpd3.0b2) deflate was not present, predictor was not usable, bsd was not present. There were just hooks for M$ and stac (which you can not release obviously). Currently i'm using ppp instead of mppd mostly just because it supports deflate compression. I had a look at both mppd and ppp to see how the mentioned free stac compression would be integrateable and found them both similar, given they both come from iijppp. It looks like if it were a good idea if Brian and Archie would merge both to get the best features from each one into a common product ;-) hellmuth -- Hellmuth Michaelis Tel +49 40 55 97 47-70 HCS Hanseatischer Computerservice GmbH Fax +49 40 55 97 47-77 Oldesloer Strasse 97-99 Mail hm [at] hcs.de D-22457 Hamburg WWW http://www.hcs.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
