I think it would be nice to aim to keep the two scripts exactly the

Hi,
With these patches, and the new tiny util 'sourceconf', we can make
/etc/defaults/rc.conf and /etc/defaults/periodic.conf configuration

Hi,
Thanks for the patches. I've committed the changes although I'm
having problems with MPPE. I suspect the problems are actually in
the CCP stuff though - and I've suspected this for some time,

I'll look into this soon.

automatically fragment the IP datagram if whatever device behind the
NAT refuses to adjust its MTU?
There's a ``tcpmssd'' port.
Thanks
