The Ultrix port is untested, as I no longer have access to an Ultrix

What's new in ppp-2.3.3.
What's new in ppp-2.3.5.
************************
* Minor corrections to the Digital UNIX and NetBSD ports.
* A workaround to avoid tickling a bug in the `se' serial port driver
on Sun PCI Ultra machines running Solaris.
* Fixed a bug in the negotiation of the Microsoft WINS server address
option.
* Fixed a bug in the Linux port where it would fail for kernel
versions above 2.1.99.
What was new in ppp-2.3.4.
**************************
* The NeXT port has been updated, thanks to Steve Perkins.
* ppp-2.3.4 compiles and works under Solaris 2.6, using either gcc or
cc.
* With the Solaris, SVR4 and SunOS ports, you can control the choice
of C compiler, C compiler options, and installation directories by
editing the svr4/Makedefs or sunos4/Makedefs file.
* Until now, we have been using the number 24 to identify Deflate
compression in the CCP negotiations, which was the number in the draft
RFC describing Deflate. The number actually assigned to Deflate is
26. The code has been changed to use 26, but to allow the use of 24
for now for backwards compatibility. (This can be disabled with the
`nodeflatedraft' option to pppd.)
* Fixed some bugs in the linux driver and deflate compressor which
were causing compression problems, including corrupting long
incompressible packets sometimes.
* Fixes to the PAM and shadow password support in pppd, from Al
Longyear and others.
* Pppd now sets some environment variables for scripts it invokes
(ip-up/down, auth-ip/down), giving information about the connection.
The variables it sets are PEERNAME, IPLOCAL, IPREMOTE, UID, DEVICE,
SPEED, and IFNAME.
* Pppd now has an `updetach' option, which will cause it to detach
from its controlling terminal once the link has come up (i.e. once it
is available for IP traffic).
What was new in ppp-2.3.3.
**************************
* Fixed compilation problems under SunOS.
* Fixed a bug introduced into chat in 2.3.2, and compilation problems
