This file describes the installation process for ppp-2.3 on systems
|
|
running Solaris 2. The Solaris 2 and SVR4 ports share a lot of code
|
|
but are not identical. The STREAMS kernel modules and driver for
|
|
Solaris 2 are in the svr4 directory (and use some code from the
|
|
modules directory).
|
|
|
|
This version has been tested under Solaris 2.6.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Although the kernel driver and modules have been designed to
|
|
operate correctly on SMP systems, they have not been extensively
|
|
tested on SMP machines. Some users of SMP Solaris x86 systems have
|
|
reported system problems apparently linked to the use of previous
|
|
versions of this software. I believe these problems have been fixed.
|

|
|
Installation.
|
|
*************
|
|
|
|
1. Run the configure script and make the user-level programs and the
|
|
kernel modules.
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
If you wish to use gcc (or another compiler) instead of Sun's cc, edit
|
|
the svr4/Makedefs file and uncomment the definition of CC. You can
|
|
also change the options passed to the C compiler by editing the COPTS
|
|
definition.
|
|
|
|
2. Install the programs and kernel modules: as root, do
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
This installs pppd, chat and pppstats in /usr/local/bin and the kernel
|
|
modules in /kernel/drv and /kernel/strmod, and creates the /etc/ppp
|
|
directory and populates it with default configuration files. You can
|
|
change the installation directories by editing svr4/Makedefs.
|
|
|
|
If your system normally has only one network interface, the default
|
|
Solaris 2 system startup scripts will disable IP forwarding in the IP
|
|
kernel module. This will prevent the remote machine from using the
|
|
local machine as a gateway to access other hosts. The solution is to
|
|
create an /etc/ppp/ip-up script containing something like this:
|
|
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
/usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/ip ip_forwarding 1
|
|
|
|
See the man page for ip(7p) for details.
