<p>If your connection to the Internet is through a modem, or
|
|
you wish to provide other people with dialup connections to
|
|
the Internet using FreeBSD, you have the option of using PPP
|
|
or SLIP. Furthermore, two varieties of PPP are provided:
|
|
<em>user</em> (sometimes referred to as iijppp) and
|
|
<em>kernel</em>. The procedures for configuring both types
|
|
of PPP, and for setting up SLIP are described in this
|
|
chapter.

<chapt><heading>The Cutting Edge: FreeBSD-current and FreeBSD-stable</heading>
|
|
<p>FreeBSD is under constant development between releases. For
|
|
people who want to be on the cutting edge, there are several
|
|
easy mechanisms for keeping your system in sync with the latest
|
|
developments. Be warned: the cutting edge is not for everyone!
|
|
This chapter will help you decide if you want to track the development
|
|
system, or stick with one of the released versions.</p>
