I bought "The Complete FreeBSD" with FreeBSD 2.2.6 on it, and installed it. The installation process was fairly quick and painless, and Greg's book is rather informative. Unfortunately, when setting up kernel PPP, I found some sort of version incompatibility between the installed pppd and the one documented in the book. I would have asked the editor/publisher to track this down as errata, except that I really want the latest and greatest pppd, so I figured you'd know that and they wouldn't. My pppd doesn't understand 'deflate' 'demand' and 'idle'. Is there a way for me to get the correct pppd that does? What's the simplest approach? I have very little invested yet in local configuration, and no user base, so I can make radical changes if necessary.
