That doesn't look right (unless it is from long time ago because it is
very different). That pppd from that samba server is the same PPPD
included with NetBSD. I have read

Hi;
I just wanted to point out that on FreeBSD the default ppp is the userland
ppp by Brian Somers http://www.awfulhak.org/ppp.html .
The preferred kernel interface for pppd is netgraph (see the manpage) and
there is a port of mpd that supports it.
cheers,
Pedro.

- "makext" probably means userland, so "sys-bsd.c" is highly likely to assume
FreeBSD. we have GNU userland, which is what the sources call "linux", so
we set makext="linux" (it's ugly to call it like this, but i can live with
it ;))
no. "sys-bsd.c" is the code to talk to a BSD-li

freebsd-3.0 (1999), also it patches the kernel.
What I did:
cd pppd
cp Makefile.linux Makefile.gfbsd
vi Makefile.gfbsd (I changed sys-linux.c to sys-bsd.c)
