PPP help

[MonMotha]

Well, I'm looking at the Universal TUN/TAP driver now, but PPP over 
somethign is still an option.  I don't need any encryption, (in fact I'd 
rather not add the overhead of it, my peer is only 128kbit), and there's 
also some problems associated with runnning TCP over TCP (retry 
algorithms don't like it). See 
http://sites.inka.de/sites/bigred/devel/tcp-tcp.html for info on that 
one; this is why I was looking at UDP.  All the docs I can find seem to 
be outdated (I saw one referring to kernel 1.2), or specifically running 
ppp over SSH (which I don't want to do for the reasons above)...the 
Universal TUN/TAP looks promising right now, but ppp is still certainly 
an option.
