-Installation instructions for installing ppp-2.2.1 on FreeBSD and
+Installation instructions for installing ppp-2.3 on FreeBSD and
NetBSD systems.
-This package supports NetBSD-1.1, NetBSD-1.0, FreeBSD-2.0, and
-FreeBSD-1.1.5.1. It should work on later systems. Modloading is not
-yet supported.
+This package supports NetBSD-current, NetBSD-1.1, NetBSD-1.0, and
+FreeBSD-2.0. (The code hasn't been tested under NetBSD-current or
+FreeBSD at this stage.) Modloading is not supported. I have code

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-2.2.1 directory):
+applications (in the ppp-2.3b1 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-2.2.1 directory, issue the command:
+automated. In the ppp-2.3b1 directory, issue the command:
make kernel
some other files under /sys. The details depend on which operating
system you're running.
-NetBSD-1.1.
-===========
-Copy the following files to /sys/net:
-
- net/ppp-comp.h
- netbsd-1.1/if_ppp.c
- netbsd-1.1/ppp_tty.c
-
-
-NetBSD-1.0.
-===========
+NetBSD.
+=======
Copy the following files to /sys/net:
net/if_ppp.h
net/ppp-comp.h
net/ppp_defs.h
- netbsd-1.0/bsd-comp.c
- netbsd-1.0/if_ppp.c
- netbsd-1.0/if_pppvar.h
- netbsd-1.0/netisr.h
- netbsd-1.0/ppp_tty.c
- netbsd-1.0/slcompress.c
- netbsd-1.0/slcompress.h
-
-You then need to patch /sys/conf/files and /sys/conf/files.newconf
-using the commands:
-
- patch -p -N -d /sys/conf <netbsd-1.0/files.patch
- patch -p -N -d /sys/conf <netbsd-1.0/files.newconf.patch
-
-The next step is to patch the file containing the code which
-dispatches software interrupts. Unfortunately, this code is in the
+ netbsd-1.1/bsd-comp.c
+ netbsd-1.1/if_ppp.c
+ netbsd-1.1/if_pppvar.h
+ netbsd-1.1/ppp-deflate.c
+ netbsd-1.1/ppp_tty.c
+ netbsd-1.1/slcompress.c
+ netbsd-1.1/slcompress.h
+ common/zlib.c
+ common/zlib.h
+
+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):
+
+ 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
+
+or this (old-style):
+
+ net/if_ppp.c optional ppp device-driver
+ net/ppp_tty.c optional ppp
+ net/bsd-comp.c optional ppp
+ net/ppp-deflate.c optional ppp
+ net/zlib.c optional ppp
+
+If you use config.old or config.new, you will need to edit
+/sys/conf/files.oldconf or /sys/conf/files.newconf respectively.
+
+For NetBSD-1.0, if you have not previously had ppp-2.2 installed, you
+will need 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:
patch -p -d /sys/arch/i386/isa <netbsd-1.0/arch/i386/icu.s.patch
+You also need to make sure that there is a line like this in
+/sys/net/netisr.h:
+
+#define NETISR_PPP 26 /* for PPP processing */
+

Configuring and making the new kernel.

you will be able to have; change it as required.
