Comments:       This extension will set up your PPP connection for dial up use.
                Run the setup to configure your connection.  Menu entries
                are present for connecting and disconnectiong.  Important files
                that need to be in your backup for your PPP configuration
                to survive across reboots:
                /etc/ppp  # config directory
                /etc/resolv.conf
                /usr/local/bin/pppsetup
                /usr/local/bin/ppp-off
                /usr/local/bin/ppp-go  # created by pppsetup when run
If you are using tclocal mounting, then /etc/ppp and
/etc/resolv.conf will be the only files you need to back up.
This extension requires pppd.tc{e|z}l.
This extension is NOT PPI compatible.
Change-log:     2008/12/29 First version (Jason W)
                2009/01/06 Fixed script to place ppp-go in /usr/local/sbin.
                2009/05/09 (mcewanw) Changed the default modem init string;
                           added pppd option -am;
   fixed JWM menu to point to /usr/local/sbin/ppp-go
Current:        2009/05/19 Removed spaces from JWM menu to make work with FLWM

Comments:       This extension will set up a dial up internet connection.

There are menu entries for setup, connecting and disconnecting.

Files that need to be in backup for configuration to persist
                across reboots:

etc/ppp
etc/resolv.conf
usr/local/sbin/ppp-go

If you also include usr/local/bin/ppp-off, you can remove
pppsetup.tcz from the tce directory after setting up the
connection. If you do, menu entries are also removed. So connect
to the internet by typing "sudo ppp-go" in the terminal, and
disconnect by typing "sudo ppp-off."

If you are using tclocal mounting, then /etc/ppp and
/etc/resolv.conf are the only files that need to be backed up.

This extension requires pppd.tczl.
This extension is NOT PPI compatible.

Current:        2009/11/10 Modified script to get the IP addresses of the domain
   name servers, and copy them to /etc/resolv.conf,
   instead of requiring them to be entered manually.
