My "make xconfig" options for PPP are:-
PPP (point-to-point protocol) support [m]
PPP multilink support (EXPRIMENTAL) [n]
PPP filtering [disabled]
PPP support for aync serial ports [m]
PPP support for sync tty ports [n]
PPP Deflate compression [m]
PPP BSD-Compress compression [m]
PPP over Ethernet (EXPERIMENTAL) [n]
PPP over ATM (EXPERIMENTAL) [m]
This process has added the following files to the
/lib/modules/2.4.14/kernel/drivers/net directory:
ppp_generic.o
ppp_async.o
ppp_deflate.o
When I try to run "pppd" manually though, I get the message:
(null): This system lacks kernel support for PPP. This could be because
the PPP kernel module could not be loaded, or because PPP was not
included in the kernel configuration. If PPP was included as a
module, try '/sbin/modprobe -v ppp'. If that fails, check t
if I "modprobe ppp" it tells me "Can't locate module ppp", which is fair
enough, as neither can I! :)
I do have a ppp_generic.o file though!?!?!?!?!?!?!
