Since no-one except Poul-Henning gave a start with this I thought I
might try my hand at this.
Given FreeBSD's rapid development over the last year a lot of things
around the releases have changed. Nik Clayton and his team are doing a
terrific job to keep up with the documentation.
However, what
I'm currently working on a driver that
provides point to point connection and I would like to use the sppp driver
in order to get PPP stack over it.
I have few questions about the sppp
driver:

the sppp driver prepends the ppp frame over the given data to s

Hi,
When doing a make world upgrade, one can do the compiling on one machine,
and then NFS mount /usr/src and /usr/obj from it onto the other machines
to do the upgrade, however when doing the same with /usr/ports, it doesn't
work quite as well. For example, once you have installed a port on the

That was the traditional distinction, but

so far, so good,
first of all, thanks for giving me this much input on my idea.
i've had a look at the pkg_version tool, which, with Nik Clayton's patch,
does more or less what i've been thinking of, when i decided to post the
initial message to this list.

have now (note you can request all the changed ports in the last X time

I've been researching music, and since I found what I consider to be a
*great* midi intro document (pdf file) I thought I'd stick it up for
everyone else, at http://www.freebsd.org/~chuckr/cs-an27.pdf
