    7: 
    8: * WHAT IS IT?
    9: 
   10:   A multi-link PPP daemon based on netgraph(4), combining the
   11:   configurability and flexibility of a user-mode with the speed and 
   12:   reliability of a kernel-mode.
   13:   Mpd supports thousands of Sync, Async, PPTP, L2TP, PPPoE, TCP and UDP 
   14:   links in client, server and access concentrator (LAC/PAC) modes.
   15: 
   16: * HOW STABLE IS IT?
   17: 
   18:   Most of this code has been thoroughly tested and production ready.
   19: 
   20: * HOW DO I BUILD AND INSTALL IT?
   21: 
   22:   cd /usr/ports/net/mpd5
   23:   make all install
   24: 
   25: * HOW DO I SET IT UP?
   26: 
   27:   Complete documentation is included in the "doc" subdirectory.
   28: 
   29:   You will need to create your own versions of the four required
   30:   configuration files in /usr/local/etc/mpd5:
   31: 
   32:     mpd.conf    - General configuration
   33:     mpd.script  - Modem scripts
   34:     mpd.secret  - Login/password pairs
   35: 
   36:   If you're familiar with FreeBSD's "ppp" user-mode daemon, the
   37:   configuration method is similar: commands are read from a file.
   38: 
   39:   Check the "conf" subdirectory for configuration file examples.
   40: 
   41:   Then append the following lines to /etc/syslog.conf and create an
   42:   empty /var/log/mpd.log file to get proper logging:
   43: 
   44:     !mpd
   45:     *.*                        /var/log/mpd.log
   46: 
   47:   Add a corresponding line to /etc/newsyslog.conf as well to get
   48:   proper log rotation.
   49: 
   50: * WHAT'S THE COPYRIGHT STATUS?
   51: 
   52:   Berkeley style: see ``COPYRIGHT.iij'' and ``COPYRIGHT.whistle''.
   53: 
   54: * WHERE CAN I GO FOR HELP?
