Update pppd(8) documentation to reflect this, usr.sbin/pppd/pppd.8.
Remove the out-of-place pppd(8) configuration files in etc/ppp,
ppp.shells.sample and ppp.deny.
Make the appropriate changes to the build process, etc/Makefile and
etc/mtree/BSD.usr.mtree, so it all works.
The files from etc/ppp, ppp.shells.sample and ppp.deny, were moved
with a repo copy. Note it in the logs with a forced commit to these
two.

don't claim that _any_ serial speed is settable, mention that it has to
be supported by the device driver. Some have very flexible baud rate
selection (ie: based on divisors etc, such as the com ports), while others
have explicit baud rate choices.
dial-on-demand, packet filtering, idle timeouts, etc). The IPX support
is pretty much there but more work needs to be done in sys-bsd.c for
the interface ioctls (Linux has a very different way of configuring IPX
interfaces).
Along the way some things have temporarily been lost due to very messy
conflicts. I will recover them shortly when I can think clearer.
The main one is the local:remote address override in pap-secrets and
chap-secrets. Some other home-grown features (dns1,dns2) have been
implemented differently. Microsoft's chap client auth hacks have been
implemented. There are bound to be more rough edges... The changes for
connect-max-retries doesn't fit well with the dial-on-demand code.
pppd now creates /var/run/ttyXn.if file containing the interface name;
check that a 'login' user is not listed in /etc/ppp/ppp.disabled;

and chap-secrets files. This allows specific users
to have pre-allocated IP numbers while others get
assigned dynamically.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
bomb out. Unfortunately, FreeBSD's sio driver and certain internal
modems don't get along very well, which can cause the serial port to
wedge until it is closed and reopened.
Add new variable, connect-max-attempts, default = 1 (to mimic previous
behavior). If > 1, will try up to "n" times to dial remote site before
aborting.
