From: Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com> MPD MULTI-LINK PPP DAEMON FOR FREEBSD Release 1.0a1 Written by Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com> Based on IIJ-PPP by Toshiharu OHNO <tony-o@iij.ad.jp> * 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. * IS THIS AN ALPHA RELEASE OR SOMETHING? Yes! The bug to documentation ratio is very high! * HOW DO I BUILD AND INSTALL IT? cd src make depend all install * HOW DO I SET IT UP? Check the "conf" directory for configuration file examples. There are four configuration files: mpd.conf - General configuration mpd.links - Description of available links mpd.script - Modem scripts mpd.secret - Login/password pairs If you're familiar with iij-ppp, the configuration method is similar: commands 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 "docs" directory is a preliminary man page and some other assorted stuff. In the "conf" directory are example configuration files with descriptive comments. * WHERE CAN I GO FOR HELP? I'll do my best to answer any questions. I'll also try to get a mailing list set up somewhere if demand warrants (any offers?). This is being released in its woefully undocumented state due to several people requesting it. Hopefully there will be more docs soon. ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie L. Cobbs, archie@whistle.com * Whistle Communications Corporation
