The pppd patch (one for 2.4.2, one for current CVS) is here: http://download.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/trunk/pppd The documentation is: http://hawkerc.net/staff/abartlet/comp3700/final-report.pdf Note that the patch changed a little since the report was written, use the instructions in the README for configuration.
