13. Compile PPPd

- Download the newest PPP sources from the URL in Section 5 and put it in "/usr/src"

- "tar -xvzf ppp-2.3.x.tar.gz"

- "cd ppp-2.3.x"

- "configure"

- Now, some patches won't need to be installed based upon the version of PPPD and/or the Linux kernel they are installing.

- "make kernel"

This will update any of the required kernel code to work with this version of PPPd.

- "make"

NOTE: You can use "make USE_MS_DNS=1" to insure your system uses the ISP's offered DNS servers over your statically-configure.

Remember, since TrinityOS will run it's OWN DNS server, it really won't matter.

- "make install"

Ok, now back to the kernel configuring for now.. ================================================================================
