[PATCH] ppp_synctty.c in 2.3.99-pre8 and ppp-2.4.0b2

[Carsten Paeth]

Hello.

pppd version 2.4.0b1 and 2.4.0b2 will not work with sync ppp,
you get the error message:
 .. pppd[4711]: Couldn't get channel number: invalid argument
because PPPIOCGCHAN is not implemented in ppp_synctty.c.

regards

calle
