-This file (README.osf) contains instructions for installing ppp-2.2 on a
-DEC Alpha running OSF/1 version 2.0 or 3.0. The original STREAMS
-module code is by (and copyrighted by) Brad Clements. See the source
-files and the general README file for full credits and copyright notices.

-If you would like to be on a mailing list concerning the ppp package,
-send mail to srt@cs.unt.edu and let me know. This mailing list should
-not have any regular traffic --- I will use it only if bugs are reported
-to notify everyone of bug-fixes.
-
-Note for users of the ppp-2.1.2 package: I have included a fix
-for the non-STREAMS tty drivers in this release. If you were using
-version 2.1.2 with a hardware serial port, then you probably used the
-"rlogin-kludge" that I described in the README that came with 2.1.2.
-You don't need this any more, and will have a more efficient connection
-if you get rid of this old work-around.

-Below are the steps for installing PPP on a DEC AXP system running OSF/1.
+This file (README.osf) contains instructions for installing ppp-2.3 on a
+Digital Alpha-based system running Digital UNIX (aka DEC OSF/1)
+version 2.0 through version 3.2F. Digial UNIX version 3.2G and beyond
+are not supported by this package, since PPP is an integral component
+of those releases. (Although it *is* possible to install this software
+on V3.2G and later of Digital UNIX, I would discourage this activity
+because it's likely to break the "update install" feature of Digital
+UNIX. You were warned...)
+
+If you encounter bugs in this using this PPP package under Digital
+UNIX then please let me (ftw@zk3.dec.com) know. I can't promise
+quick turnaround but I should be able to address issues eventually.
