To install PPP, you need to rebuild your kernel to include the latest
version of the PPP driver, as well as compiling and installing the
before you can run them, of course).
The following commands should compile and install the user-level
-applications (in the ppp-2.2 directory):
+applications (in the ppp-2.3 directory):
./configure
make
make install (you need to be root for this)
The process of updating the kernel source files is now largely
-automated. In the ppp-2.2 directory, issue the command:

necessary), rebuilding the kernel and rebooting.

Updating the kernel ppp code.
------------------------------

You need to update several files in the /sys/net directory, and patch
-some other files under /sys.

+=======
-For NetBSD-1.0, copy the following files to /sys/net:
+Copy the following files to /sys/net:

-You then need to patch /sys/conf/files and /sys/conf/files.newconf
-using the commands:
+You may need to edit /sys/conf/files to make sure it contains entries
+for if_ppp.c, ppp_tty.c, bsd-comp.c, ppp-deflate.c and zlib.c.
+Depending on whether your port uses the old-style or new-style config
+files, these entries will look like this (new-style):
- patch -p -N -d /sys/conf <netbsd/files.patch
- patch -p -N -d /sys/conf <netbsd/files.newconf.patch
+ file net/if_ppp.c ppp needs-count
+ file net/ppp_tty.c ppp
+ file net/bsd-comp.c ppp
+ file net/ppp-deflate.c ppp
+ file net/zlib.c ppp
-The next step is to patch the file containing the code which
-dispatches software interrupts. Unfortunately, this code is in the
-architecture-dependent files, so the file to patch depends on which
-NetBSD port you are using:

Configuring and making the new kernel.
---------------------------------------
+**************************************
First, make sure that the configuration file you are using includes a
line something like
configure, that is, the maximum number of simultaneous ppp connections
you will be able to have; change it as required.
-Next, run config or config.new in the directory containing the
-configuration file, giving the configuration file name as an argument.
-Then cd to the compilation directory and make the kernel. For the
-i386 port of NetBSD, with a configuration file called CONF, this
-involves the following commands:
