Brian Somers 030e4ebba8 o Remove bundle_LinkLost() and have the modem routines simply
call datalink_Down() where appropriate rather than
  modem_Hangup().
o Now, when something horrible happens (failed read/write, loss
  of carrier etc), we go offline and run any hangup scripts etc
  in a controlled manner - exactly the same as if someone says
  ``down'' at the prompt or sends us a HUP.
o -dedicated links that fail to make the modem raw close it,
  suffer the redial timeout then try to open it again.
o Add a ``carrier lost'' warning diagnostic.

This program was originally written by Toshiharu OHNO <tony-o@iij.ad.jp>,
and was submitted to FreeBSD-2.0.5 by Atsushi Murai <amurai@spec.co.jp>.
The original version was usually referred to as iij-ppp.

Ppp is currently maintained under FreeBSD and OpenBSD by Brian Somers
<brian@Awfulhak.org>.  The sources for both operating systems are the
same although the Makefiles vary due to the nature of each system.
If and when it's ported to another OS, things will probably be shuffled
around so that there are several Makefiles, one per architecture.

The latest sources are available in FreeBSD-current and OpenBSD-current.
An archive hacked so that it will build on just about any version of
FreeBSD is frequently generated and made available on
http://www.FreeBSD.org/~brian.  Once the first OpenBSD release is made
with ppp, an up-to-date OpenBSD archive will be made available too.

A FAQ is available at http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html.  It applies
equally to OpenBSD as it does to FreeBSD.  The man page is quite extensive,
and there are lots of examples in /etc/ppp/ppp.*.sample.  These examples
come with the hacked archive above but must be installed manually.

Ppp is still under development.  There is no official TODO list.
