Subject: PPP where ?


Where can I find PPP software ?
Archie didn't give me any of the information that I am looking for.
Is there ppp for hp running 9.01 out there ?
I would love to hear from anyone who has successfully or not sucessfully
installed ppp on their hp.

Thanks.

You have to buy it for the HP, as far as I know. See anonymous ftp on
ftp.morningstar.com.

I'm in the process of porting BSD PPP to the HP's. I'm 70% done (it's
a little bit diffcult with out a source license :-) ), but hope
to finish it this month. If someone from HP voluteers to answer some
questions (I guess I need some docs for the linedicipline stuff) it
would be a big help.

Regards
Stefan

Can I run ppl over a telnet session?
I know that this sounds weird, but it is what my situation requires.
What I need to do is to telnet (via terminal server) to a machine that I have
access to, and establish a ppl link to that machine.
I do not have access to program the terminal server.

Maybe I could cheat by feeding it through some pipes?

I guess you can't, (I'm trying to port PPP and it won't run on
a pseudo tty ....), but there is a halfready (at least my copy) thing called
portable-ppp that runs entirely in user-mode, that should run
over a telnet connection too.
