ipx via ppp.

1997-09-17 Thread R. Chris Ross
I have compiled my kernel with ipx support at home.  It was
intended that I connect via ppp to our novel server at work.  When I put
any of the ipx related commands into the /etc/ppp/option file I get a
message that the command is no good.  They are out of the pppd man page.
Does Debian pppd support ipx or do I need to compile it on my own?

I had this problem too. To solve it you have to recompile the ppp package
with IPX_CHANGE=1. This variable is defined in the Makefile. The ppp
package has this disabled by default.
