1N/AThese are GNU utilities that can be used with the Solaris version of
1N/APPP. They provide optional features and are not needed for normal
1N/Aoperation.
1N/A
1N/AThe pppdump utility reads files produced by the pppd "record" option
1N/Aand produces human-readable output. This can be useful when debugging
1N/Aproblems with the kernel data compression modules, but is otherwise
1N/Agenerally not as useful as the debugging features already built into
1N/Apppd.
1N/A
1N/AThe minconn.so plugin sets a minimum initial connect time when the
1N/A"idle" option is used.
1N/A
1N/AThe passprompt.so plugin allows PAP to be used with external prompting
1N/Aprograms, such as xprompt. This allows the password to be supplied
1N/Ainteractively, in much the same manner as on PCs.
1N/A
1N/ATo build, simply type "make". Depending on how your system is
1N/Aconfigured, you may need to specify the compiler to use, like this:
1N/A
1N/A % make CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc
1N/A
1N/ATo install, you will need to be root (or at least have write
1N/Apermission to the /etc/ppp/plugins, /usr/bin, and /usr/share/man/man1m
1N/Adirectories).
1N/A
1N/A # make install
