I'm currently revising my book "The Complete FreeBSD". The new
edition should be out in the bookstores in a couple of months. Right
now I'm revising the chapter on PPP setup, which was written in 1997.
Since then, the ISP landscape has changed dramatically, and I suspect
that large parts of the chapter are no longer relevant. I'd like your
feedback on the following issues:
1. What kind of authentication do you use? Please don't reply if
it's PAP or CHAP; I think that's almost universal. I'm just
interested if anybody is using anything else (like a UNIX login,
for example).
2. Do you use user PPP or kernel PPP? I'd like answers in each case
here, please. I note that other books have decided to describe
only one or the other, but currently I think there's a reason for
both.
Greg
