While you are at it, i would like to see an option to include/exclude hosts from the management feature. I'm sick of the `anyone in the world' message, but don't feel better by adding secrets. I think it should by default only allow localhost to manipulate the daemon. Alternatively, it should optionally create a local domain socket instead of the internet domain socket. However, this would prevent you from using telnet as the client (so another invocation of ppp itself had to take the client role). The latter is probably a good idea anyway. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
