anything for two mintues (see ``set choked'' and ``show
bundle''), nuke the ip, mp and link level buffer queues.
This should fix problems where ``ppp -auto'' seems to stop
responding after failing to connect to the peer a few times.
the `-literal' after the closing .Ed.
Where this happens, use ``.Bd -unfilled'' with ``.It Li'' to dodge
the problem - it looks better too.

the device is successfully opened. If we fail to open it,
mention the fact.
Also go back into command mode as soon as the device is closed
rather than waiting for the user to type something before noticing.
(see the new ``set callback'' and ``set cbcp'' commands)
o Add a ``cbcp'' log level and mbuf type.
o Don't dump core when \T is given in ``set login'' or
``set hangup''.
o Allow ``*'' and blanks as placeholders in ppp.secret and
allow a fifth field for specifying auth/cbcp dialback
parameters.
o Remove a few extraneous #includes
o Define the default number of REQs (restart counter) in defs.h
rather than hardcoding ``5'' all over the place.
o Fix a few man page inconsistencies.
do TLD *before* processing the config request as
TLD initialises the peers LCP values.
It's strange that an IRC isn't required here - but
I'll bow to the wisdom of the rfc.
``add .... HISADDR''. The network will never be
reachable at this point unless we're in -auto or reading
the command from ppp.linkup.
We can now run the following lines and get the expected
results:
set ifaddr 1.2.3.4/0 5.6.7.8/0
add default HISADDR
where a route is added immediately in auto mode and the
whole thing is delayed 'till the IP numbers have been
agreed in other modes.
Essentially, ppp.linkup is no longer required.
diagnostics (which are on by default).
o Deal correctly with both sides wanting CHAP.
o Output a warning if we're using an empty ``authname''. This is
*not* what we want to do.
