- Fixed spec file to automatically add .gz extension to man files as required
- Tightened firewall rules.
- Better check for /var/run in adsl-status; minor shell script fixes and
cleanups for NetBSD and Solaris.
- Added FAQ to HOW-TO-CONNECT regarding running a script each time a
connection is made.
- Fixed the init script to create/remove /var/lock/subsys/adsl (patch
courtesy of Charley Carter.)
- Added support (under Linux) for N_HDLC line discipline which should
greatly reduce CPU usage. My tests show it cuts CPU usage in half.
My 486 DX2/66 gets 800 kb/s at 22% CPU usage.
- adsl-connect uses "setsid" (if available) so that adsl-stop doesn't kill
its caller. There is (IMO) a bug in pppd which kills all processes in
its process group if the "pty" option is used. The setsid program gets
around this bug, on Linux at least.
- Port to Solaris, courtesy of David Holland.
- Renamed spec file from "spec" to "rp-pppoe.spec" and made some cleanups.
NOTE: Red Hat, in their infinite wisdom, decided to make the new RPM
compress man pages automatically. You may have problems building RPM's
from source unless you get the latest rpm package and make sure it
compresses man pages.
