-Installing PPP on an Ultrix system requires rebuilding the kernel and
-rebooting, in addition to making and installing the pppd and chat
-programs. These instructions apply to RISC (MIPS) systems. This
-software should work under Ultrix 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 (this release has
-not been tested yet).
-
-
-Kernel installation procedure.
-******************************
-
-If you have not previously had an earlier version of this package
-installed in the kernel, follow these steps:
-
-1. Become root.
-
-2. Apply the patches in the file ultrix/patches using the command:
-
- patch -p -N <ultrix/patches
-
-This will edit the following files, saving the original versions in a
-file with `.orig' appended to the name:
-
- /usr/sys/h/ioctl.h
- /usr/sys/net/net/if.h
- /usr/sys/net/net/netisr.h
- /usr/sys/net/net/conf_net.c
- /usr/sys/data/pseudo_data.c
- /usr/sys/data/tty_conf_data.c
- /usr/sys/conf/mips/files.mips
-
-Alternatively, edit these files according to the differences shown in
-ultrix/patches.
-
-3. Copy the following files to /usr/sys/io/netif:
-
- net/ppp-comp.h
- net/ppp_defs.h
- ultrix/bsd-comp.c
- ultrix/ppp-deflate.c
- ultrix/if_ppp.c
- ultrix/if_ppp.h
- ultrix/if_pppvar.h
- ultrix/ppp_tty.c
- ultrix/slcompress.c
- ultrix/slcompress.h
- common/zlib.c
- common/zlib.h
-
-4. Add a line like this to the configuration file for your kernel:
-
- pseudo-device ppp 2
-
-The `2' indicates the number of interfaces desired. The configuration
-file should be in /usr/sys/conf/mips.
-
-5. Rebuild your kernel. The simplest way to do this is with the
-`doconfig' command, like this:
-
- /etc/doconfig -c kernel-name
-
-where `kernel-name' should be replaced by the name of your kernel
-configuration file. Alternatively, run config, cd to the compilation
-directory, and run make.
-
-6. Copy the new /vmunix to /. It would be a good idea to keep a copy
-of your old /vmunix in / under a different name.
-
-7. Reboot the system.
-
-********
-
-If you have ppp-2.2 already installed in your kernel, most files will
-already have been modified as required. You will need to add some
-entries to /usr/sys/conf/mips/files.mips. You can do this with a
-command like this (as root):
-
- patch -p -N <ultrix/upgrade
-
-Alternatively, edit /usr/sys/conf/mips/files.mips according to the
-differences shown in ultrix/upgrade.
-
-Then, proceed with steps 3, 5, 6, 7 above (step 4 should have been
-done already).
-
-
-Installing pppd and chat.
-*************************
-
-1. cd to the ppp-2.2 directory and do:
-
- ./configure
- make
-
-2. Become root, and do:
-
- make install
-
-
-Credits.
