4b40c43af8 o Now when the Cold War is ended we can confess our pppd(8) supports
CBCP (Call Back Configuration Protocol).  Document 'callback phone_number'.

9d5abbddbf Correct typos, mostly s/ a / an / where appropriate. Some whitespace cleanup,
especially in troff files.

76f10508d4 Put a complete set of pppd(8) sample configuration files in
/usr/share/examples/pppd.

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.

Submitted by:	Maxim Konovalov <maxim@macomnet.ru> provided the new samples.

a3f3c85b7f Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

43d887c508 Don't say that the filtering options are only available under NetBSD, and
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.

65201e4a29 Revive the connect-max-attempts option. When running in persist mode,
this limits the number of retries before aborting.  This can save
expensive phone bills. :-)  See rev 1.6 of main.c for original.

5b51863fca Revive rev 1.10, which documents the secrets files overrides for the
local:remote IP addresses on the command line or the options.ttynn files.

b6633f4571 *gulp* First pass at merging in ppp-2.3.0's pppd. (this has
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;
check that a 'login' user's shell is listed in /etc/ppp/ppp.shells;
make sure that passwordless 'login' logins are recorded in wtmp and
utmp.

86fdcdef07 Allow forcing of local_ip:remote_ip in pap-secrets
and chap-secrets files.  This allows specific users
to have pre-allocated IP numbers while others get
assigned dynamically.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
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.

7e31b4b1be Previously, if the dial script had any problems, pppd would simply
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.
