This directory contains a port of ppp-2.3.5. The official site for
the original source for this PPP implementation is:
ftp://cs.anu.edu.au/pub/software/ppp
NOTE: As of 11/30/1999, the current version of this source is 2.3.10.
The port was performed by Tomasz Domin <dot@comarch.pl> of ComArch SA
and has only been tested on the mpc823. The modem driver should
work with minor modifications on other systems.
=================================================================
Some comments:
+ "SetStatusInfo is a function which displays given message on
bottom side of the screen."
The issue of how to deal with SetStatusInfo in a generic, portable
fashion is still open.
+ "Dialer returns positive integer when an error occurs, and negative one
which is parsed from modem aswer, when connection is done (for example
-28000 if connection speed is 28000 baud ...)"
+ PPP_User/PPP_Password
"When this field is set, it is sent to the server when there is need
to login ....
When it is blank - it is using other method of authentification ... or
none ...
PPP_Password is also used in CHAT and PAP - because there is no
configuration files in RTEMS ..."
This falls into the general question of how to generally configure this.
+ ConnectionStatus
This is the method of synchronization between pppd task and others.
ConnectionStatus field is set by pppd - when connection occurs it`s state
is set to Connected. WantConnection is set by client application (and
the appriopriate event is sent then) so pppd knows what user wants to do ...
+ Around line 270 of main.c, there is code to change the default
nameserver... why?
Becouse in my application user can change it anytime ... - without need of
rebooting the system
When PPP connection is configured there is needed additional info about
nameservers - PPP layer cant discover them itself
