Chat can now +accept comments in the chat script file, and has new SAY, HANGUP, +CLR_ABORT and CLR_REPORT keywords. + +* Fixed a bug which causes 2.3.0 to crash Solaris systems. + +* Bug-fixes and restructuring of the Linux kernel driver. + +* The holdoff behaviour of pppd has been changed slightly: now, if +the link comes up for IP (or other network protocol) traffic, we +consider that the link has been successfully established, and don't +enforce the holdoff period after the link goes down. + +* Pppd should now correctly wait for CD (carrier detect) from the +modem, even when the serial port initially had CLOCAL set, and it +should also detect loss of CD during or immediately after the +connection script runs. +[[ *************************** +[[ NOTE: This change has NOT been incorporated into the FreeBSD version +[[ due to tty handling differences!
