Installation instructions for installing ppp-2.3 on FreeBSD and
|
||
|
|
NetBSD systems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This package supports NetBSD-current, NetBSD-1.2, NetBSD-1.1,
|
||
|
|
FreeBSD-2.1, and FreeBSD-2.0. Modloading is not supported. I have
|
||
|
|
code which may work on earlier systems; contact me if you need it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To install PPP, you need to rebuild your kernel to include the latest
|
||
|
|
version of the PPP driver, as well as compiling and installing the
|
||
|
|
user-level applications: pppd, pppstats and chat. The user-level
|
||
|
|
applications can be compiled and installed either before or after you
|
||
|
|
reboot with the new kernel (you'll have to reboot with the new kernel
|
||
|
|
before you can run them, of course).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following commands should compile and install the user-level
|
||
|
|
applications (in the ppp-2.3 directory):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
make install (you need to be root for this)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The process of updating the kernel source files is now largely
|
||
|
|
automated. In the ppp-2.3 directory, issue the command:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
make kernel
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(you probably need to be root for this). This will copy new versions
|
||
|
|
of several files into /sys, patch other files, and finally give you
|
||
|
|
instructions about modifying your kernel configuration file (if
|
||
|
|
necessary), rebuilding the kernel and rebooting.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want to do the process by hand, read the next section.

*****************************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You need to update several files in the /sys/net directory, and patch
|
||
|
|
some other files under /sys. The details depend on which operating
|
||
|
|
system you're running.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NetBSD.
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Copy the following files to /sys/net:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
net/if_ppp.h
|
||
|
|
net/ppp-comp.h
|
||
|
|
net/ppp_defs.h
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/bsd-comp.c
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/if_ppp.c
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/if_pppvar.h
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/ppp-deflate.c
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/ppp_tty.c
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/slcompress.c
|
||
|
|
netbsd-1.1/slcompress.h
|
||
|
|
common/zlib.c
|
||
|
|
common/zlib.h
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You may need to edit /sys/conf/files to make sure it contains entries
|
||
|
|
for if_ppp.c, ppp_tty.c, bsd-comp.c, ppp-deflate.c and zlib.c.
|
||
|
|
Depending on whether your port uses the old-style or new-style config
|
||
|
|
files, these entries will look like this (new-style):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
file net/if_ppp.c ppp needs-count
|
||
|
|
file net/ppp_tty.c ppp
|
||
|
|
file net/bsd-comp.c ppp
|
||
|
|
file net/ppp-deflate.c ppp
|
||
|
|
file net/zlib.c ppp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or this (old-style):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
net/if_ppp.c optional ppp device-driver
|
||
|
|
net/ppp_tty.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
net/bsd-comp.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
net/ppp-deflate.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
net/zlib.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you use config.old or config.new, you will need to edit
|
||
|
|
/sys/conf/files.oldconf or /sys/conf/files.newconf respectively.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FreeBSD.
|
||
|
|
========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Copy the following files to /sys/net:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
net/if_ppp.h
|
||
|
|
net/ppp-comp.h
|
||
|
|
net/ppp_defs.h
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/bsd-comp.c
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/if_ppp.c
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/if_pppvar.h
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/ppp-deflate.c
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/ppp_tty.c
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/pppcompress.c
|
||
|
|
freebsd-2.0/pppcompress.h
|
||
|
|
common/zlib.c
|
||
|
|
common/zlib.h
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You then need to edit /sys/conf/files to make sure it contains entries
|
||
|
|
for if_ppp.c, ppp_tty.c, bsd-comp.c, ppp-deflate.c and zlib.c. These
|
||
|
|
entries should look like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
net/if_ppp.c optional ppp device-driver
|
||
|
|
net/ppp_tty.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
net/bsd-comp.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
net/ppp-deflate.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
net/zlib.c optional ppp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configuring and making the new kernel.
|
||
|
|
**************************************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, make sure that the configuration file you are using includes a
|
||
|
|
line something like
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
pseudo-device ppp 2
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If it doesn't, add one. The `2' is the number of ppp interfaces to
|
||
|
|
configure, that is, the maximum number of simultaneous ppp connections
|
||
|
|
you will be able to have; change it as required.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Next, run config (or config.old or config.new) in the directory
|
||
|
|
containing the configuration file, giving the configuration file name
|
||
|
|
as an argument. Then cd to the compilation directory and make the
|
||
|
|
kernel. For the i386 port of NetBSD, with a configuration file called
|
||
|
|
CONF, this involves the following commands:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd /sys/arch/i386/conf
|
||
|
|
/usr/sbin/config CONF
|
||
|
|
cd ../compile/CONF
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For FreeBSD, the commands are similar except for different
|
||
|
|
directories:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd /sys/i386/conf
|
||
|
|
/usr/sbin/config CONF
|
||
|
|
cd ../../compile/CONF
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The result should be a new kernel image (usually called `netbsd' under
|
||
|
|
NetBSD, `kernel' under FreeBSD). Save a copy of the kernel image
|
||
|
|
you're currently using, copy the new kernel image file to /, and
|
||
|
|
reboot.
