[lwip-users] Re: lwip-users Digest, Vol 80, Issue 34

In fact, I want to *be* the PPP server. Someone will connect to my program through the serial port/modem and start a PPP link. I cannot rely on kernel level software. My implementation must be all in userland.
BTW, I found no contrib-1.3.2 tarball in the downloads page. Should I use contrib-1.3.0 with lwip-1.3.2 instead? Or should I check out the CVS HEAD to be sure?

How do I build for Linux BTW? contrib/ports/unix seems to have no configure or makefiles... What did I miss?

Danke HJ for your longtime ago post. There is quite a lot of insight for beginners there.

If I read that correctly, you were trying to connect to a windows-server using PPP with MS extensions (or sth like that). However, the original poster of this thread wanted our PPP to be compiled on windows as a client, which I can cofirm works, although I only tested it against a samba-pppd running on linux.
