1. LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
Important Changes
Introduction
Information wanted
1.0 Important Changes
I added a pointer to the alpha test ppp software for linux mentioned in
the newsgroup.
1.1 Introduction
I took the Information in Ed Vielmetti's FAQ files, my personal
experience, and lots of stuff from comp.protocols.ppp, and built a new
document. Later, lots of people contributed at one or the other place.
This document will be reposted fortnightly, as soon as it is fairly
stable, and weekly till then. Changed sections should be marked in the
Table of Contents with a ! or + for something got added or - for
something got deleted.
1.2 Information Wanted
If you have experience with anything mentioned here, or know of newer
versions, or of versions of software for other hardware/OS, or ... send
me mail. I'll include it and possibly mention your name, if you don't
express otherwise.

Solaris 2.1: it's slow, needs 200M of disk space and comes without C compiler,
which makes it remarkably close to MS-Windows. oleg@gd.cs.csufresno.edu
