- Added missing -f to [ invocation in ksyms check.

Fri May 23 12:00:00 1997 Michael K. Johnson

Call /sbin/netreport to request that SIGIO be sent to you whenever
a network interface changes status (won\'t work for brining up SLIP
devices).
Call /sbin/netreport -r to remove the notification request.

properly.

Wed Feb 26 11:00:00 1997 Michael K. Johnson
- Added MTU for PPP.
- Put PPPOPTIONS at the end of the options string instead of at the
beginning so that they override other options. Gives users more rope...

st module isn\'t there and we try to load it.

Tue Feb 25 11:00:00 1997 Michael K. Johnson
- Changed ifup-ppp and ifdown-ppp not to use doexec, because the argv[0]
provided by doexec goes away when pppd gets swapped out.
- ifup-ppp now sets remotename to the logical name of the device.
This will BREAK current PAP setups on netcfg-managed interfaces,
but we needed to do this to add a reasonable interface-specific
PAP editor to netcfg.

Fri Feb 7 11:00:00 1997 Erik Troan
- Added usernetctl wrapper for user mode ifup and ifdown\'s and man page
- Rewrote ppp and slip kill and retry code
