-This file (README.osf) contains instructions for installing ppp-2.3 on a
-Compaq Alpha-based system running Tru64 Unix (formerly Digital UNIX aka
-DEC OSF/1) version 4.0. Please note that PPP is an integral
-component of Tru64 UNIX version 3.2G and beyond (documented in the
-Guide to Network Administration), and though it *is* possible to install
-this software on V3.2G and later of Tru64 UNIX, you are likely
-to have problems with the "update install" feature of Tru64
-UNIX and while installing some OS patches. (See the note on
-de-installation below).
-
-Tru64 Unix versions Version 3.X and earlier are no longer supported
-in this package. Please use ppp-2.3.5 on these systems.
-
-INSTALLATION.
-
-If you encounter bugs while using this PPP package under Tru64
-UNIX then please let me (varadhan@zk3.dec.com) know. I can't promise
-quick turnaround but I should be able to address issues eventually.
-
-Below are the steps for installing PPP on Tru64 UNIX.
-You must do all of the following as "root".
-
-1. back up /usr/sys/BINARY, /usr/sys/include/net,
- /usr/sys/conf/files, /sys/kern/lockinfo.c and /sys/BINARY/ppp.mod
- # mkdir -p /usr/tmp/ppp
- # cd /usr/sys
- # tar cvf /usr/tmp/ppp/BINARY.tar ./BINARY
- # cd /usr/sys/include
- # tar cvf /usr/tmp/ppp/usr_sys_include_net.tar ./net
- # cp /usr/sys/conf/files /usr/tmp/ppp/files
- # cp /sys/kern/lockinfo.c /usr/tmp/ppp/lockinfo.c
- # cp /sys/BINARY/ppp.mod /usr/tmp/ppp/ppp.mod
-
-2. Edit /usr/sys/conf/files- search for the string: "MODULE/STATIC/ppp"
-comment out the existing entries, and change it to look like:
-
-MODULE/STATIC/ppp optional ppp Binary
-#streamsm/ppp_init.c module ppp
-#streamsm/ppp_if.c module ppp
-#streamsm/ppp_async.c module ppp
-#streamsm/ppp_comp.c module ppp
-#streamsm/vjcompress.c module ppp
-#streamsm/bsd_comp.c module ppp
-streamsm/if_ppp.c module ppp
-streamsm/ppp_comp.c module ppp
-streamsm/ppp_init.c module ppp
-streamsm/vjcompress.c module ppp
-streamsm/bsd-comp.c module ppp
-streamsm/deflate.c module ppp
-streamsm/ppp.c module ppp
-streamsm/ppp_ahdlc.c module ppp
-streamsm/zlib.c module ppp
-
-3. Make the kernel sources, daemon, chat, and pppstat program by typing
-
- ./configure
- make install
-
- in the directory that this file unpacked into. This installs the
- binaries for the PPP daemon and the statistics program in
- /usr/local/etc/ppp. If you want them somewhere else, just change
- the definition of BINDIR in the top level Makefile.osf. If you plan
- to over-write exisiting pppd executables in /usr/sbin/, it's advisable
- that you create back-up copies of these first, before doing the
- 'make install'
-
- Note that BINDIR and MANDIR/man8 must exist before you do a
- 'make install'
-
-
-4. Edit /sys/kern/lockinfo.c, and conditionally compile out the lines:
-
-#if PPP
- SLI("ppp_if_table_lock", ppp_if_table_lock_info, SPLNONE, DEFAULT);
- SLI("ppp_if_info.ppp_if_element_lock", ppp_if_element_lock_info, SPLNONE
-, DEFAULT);
- SLI("ppp_comp_table_lock", ppp_comp_table_lock_info, SPLNONE, DEFAULT);
- SLI("ppp_comp_info.ppp_comp_element_lock", ppp_comp_element_lock_info, S
-PLNONE, DEFAULT);
- SLI("ppp_async_table_lock", ppp_async_table_lock_info, SPLNONE, DEFAULT)
-;
- SLI("ppp_async_info.ppp_async_element_lock", ppp_async_element_lock_info
-, SPLNONE, DEFAULT);
-#endif /* PPP */
-
-by changing the line
-
-#if PPP
-
-to be
-
-#if 0
-
-5. Find your system's configuration file. This should be called
- /sys/conf/SYSNAME, where SYSNAME is replaced by the name of your
- host. For example, on my machine (zaphod.csci.unt.edu) it it called
- /sys/conf/ZAPHOD. I will refer to this file from now on as
- /sys/conf/SYSNAME.
-
-6. Add the following line at the end of /sys/conf/SYSNAME:
-
- options PPP
-
-7. Build a new kernel by using the command
-
- doconfig -c SYSNAME
-
- (say "n" to "Do you want to edit...").
-
-8. Copy the new kernel to /vmunix --- I'm usually pretty nervous about
- writing over a perfectly good kernel with one that I'm not sure
- about, so I will usually "mv /vmunix /vmunix.old" first. To put
- the new kernel in place, do a "cp /sys/SYSNAME/vmunix /vmunix".
-
-9. Make sure your system is set up so that it can act like a gateway
- for messages to your new connection. In particular, check the file
- /etc/rc.config for the line define ROUTER, and make sure it is
- defined as "yes".
-
-10. Reboot and you're ready to go!
-
-Hopefully, that should work with no hitches. If you find any bugs, or
-errors in these instructions, contact Sowmini Varadhan<varadhan@zk3.dec.com>.
-
-
-DEINSTALLATION
-
-It is advisable to retrace your steps and restore the system
-to its normal state before installing patches or running update_install.
-Here's how you can retrace..
-
-1. Restore /usr/sys/BINARY, /usr/sys/include/net, /usr/sys/conf/files
- and /sys/kern/lockinfo.c and /sys/BINARY/ppp.mod. For example,
- if you followed the instructions in step 1 verbatim, you would do
-
- # cd /usr/sys/
- # rm -rf ./BINARY
- # tar xvf /usr/tmp/ppp/BINARY.tar
- # cd /usr/sys/include
- # rm -rf ./net
- # tar xvf /usr/tmp/ppp/usr_sys_include_net.tar
- # cp /usr/tmp/ppp/files /usr/sys/conf/files
- # cp /usr/tmp/ppp/lockinfo.c /sys/kern/lockinfo.c
- # cp /usr/tmp/ppp/ppp.mod /sys/BINARY/ppp.mod
-
-Now redo steps 5-10 and install the patch after you have rebooted.
