MPD MULTI-LINK PPP DAEMON FOR FREEBSD
Release 1.0b4
Written by Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com>
Based on IIJ-PPP by Toshiharu OHNO <tony-o@iij.ad.jp>
Please see the CHANGES file if you are updating from mpd-1.0b3.
* WHAT IS IT?
A user-mode PPP daemon based on iij-ppp which supports multi-link PPP.
It is a complete re-write of the original iij-ppp code.
* HOW STABLE IS IT?
Most of this code has been thoroughly tested. Some parts, such
as compression, have not been tested very much at all. However,
the core of the daemon is very solid.
* HOW DO I SET IT UP?
Check the "etc/mpd" directory for configuration file examples.
There are four configuration files:
mpd.conf.sample - General configuration
mpd.links.sample - Description of available links
mpd.script.sample - Modem scripts
mpd.secret.sample - Login/password pairs
If you're familiar with iij-ppp, the configuration method is
similar: commands are read from a file.
* WHAT'S THE COPYRIGHT STATUS?
Berkeley style: see ``COPYRIGHT.iij'' and ``COPYRIGHT.whistle''.
* WHERE CAN I READ MORE ABOUT IT?
In the "doc/mpd" directory is a preliminary man page and some other
assorted stuff. In the "etc/mpd" directory are example configuration
files with descriptive comments.
* WHERE CAN I GO FOR HELP?
Email me any questions <archie@whistle.com> and I'll do my best
to answer them.
