* wrapup/Makefile.am: Added modem subdir. * configure.in, Makefile.am: Added modem subdir. * net/Makefile.am: Added if_pppvar.h, pppcompress.h. * pppd/Makefile.am: Added pppmain.c (which needs work). * pppd/chat.c, pppd/fsm.c, pppd/fsm.h, pppd/ipxcp.c, pppd/main.c, pppd/ppp_tty.c, pppd/upap.c: Changes from Thomas Doerfler <Thomas.Doerfler@imd-systems.de> and cosmetic changes by me. Actually main.c and ppp_tty.c should be scratched. The modem subdir has the real ppp_tty.c and the real pppd main is in pppmain.c.
# # $Id$ # This directory contains a port of ppp-2.3.5. The official site for the original source for this PPP implementation is: ftp://cs.anu.edu.au/pub/software/ppp NOTE: As of 11/30/1999, the current version of this source is 2.3.10. The port was performed by Tomasz Domin <dot@comarch.pl> of ComArch SA and has only been tested on the mpc823. The modem driver should work with minor modifications on other systems. ================================================================= Some comments: + "SetStatusInfo is a function which displays given message on bottom side of the screen." The issue of how to deal with SetStatusInfo in a generic, portable fashion is still open. + "Dialer returns positive integer when an error occurs, and negative one which is parsed from modem aswer, when connection is done (for example -28000 if connection speed is 28000 baud ...)" + PPP_User/PPP_Password "When this field is set, it is sent to the server when there is need to login .... When it is blank - it is using other method of authentification ... or none ... PPP_Password is also used in CHAT and PAP - because there is no configuration files in RTEMS ..." This falls into the general question of how to generally configure this. + ConnectionStatus This is the method of synchronization between pppd task and others. ConnectionStatus field is set by pppd - when connection occurs it`s state is set to Connected. WantConnection is set by client application (and the appriopriate event is sent then) so pppd knows what user wants to do ... + Around line 270 of main.c, there is code to change the default nameserver... why? Becouse in my application user can change it anytime ... - without need of rebooting the system When PPP connection is configured there is needed additional info about nameservers - PPP layer cant discover them itself
