Due to overwhelming (well, a half-dozen requests :-) I've placed a draft copy
of my FreeBSD 2.2-BETA (and above) router/gateway how-to in:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/DRAFT-ppp_router_how-to.tgz

PS:  What's wrong with freefall?  I couldn't find write permissions in
/incoming!

Source for the doc is provided in SGML (suitable for `make`ing) but text and
HTML versions are in the archive as well.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE provide comments - I'd like to get this put to bed - I'm
sick unto death of looking at it!
