I'd really like to upgrade to 5.6/-current, but for my connection to

Not currently possible, npppd is server-side only and doesn't do
MLPPP (or IPV6CP).
That's what I was afraid of.
Theo, is there any chance of putting userland ppp back in? I'm sure I'm
not the only person out there that needs that specific functionality to
stay online.
I know you've said before that the code is horrible, there are too many
pppoe options, but there are some people -- like me -- that are stuck
without it. We just don't have a viable option.
Please consider putting it back in. People like me still use and need
it, and it's no hardship on your end.
Please?
