first shot at tunnel interface for pfinet

2000-10-03 Thread Marcus Brinkmann
Hi, in light of the recent discussions, and considering that no code resulted from them, I had a go at the Hurd related changes for a tunnel interface in pfinet. NOTE: This is an early-development-stage-patch-for-interested-hacker, NOT a user-consumable-ready-to-go-patch-to-get-ppp-working. The
