/* some notes for using PPP */ Mars_nwe works well with ppp and ippp Devices. This files describes example for ppp device. The file PPP.isdn describes example for ippp device. Simple sample config files for a ppp server using ppp0 as ppp device. We configure TCP-IP and IPX ppp connections. Notes: - ppp must be compiled into kernel or must be loaded as module. - mgetty has to be compiled with "-DAUTO_PPP" for this to work. - pppd has to be compiled with IPX.
