Acknoledgements
---------------

The original slip code was written by Michael Temari and Fred N. Van Kempem
for the TNET package. It was the base code for the SLIP driver and also 
for the PPP driver.

The LCP and IPCP (in PPP) and CSLIP (in SLIP) routines are modifications of 
the ones supplied with the ppp program from Minix-VMD written by 
Philip Homburg. Also, I follow the RFCs to get it working as best as possible.
Also Philip Homburg answered my questions about routing, and he sent me code
to handle routes.

Michael Temari, for suggestions about managing the DNS options adding records
to the resolver file (first implementation was forking nonamed). Also for
his explanation about how works nonamed/resolver routines, and for his tests
of ppp in his LAN, and suggestions for improving documentation. Also provided
information and fixes.

Al Woodhull, for testing help and about all the work on using POSIX calls
in the tty configuration. Also, he gave me a lot of feedback about the
package in the development of the slip package.

Tom Buts (100372.1036@compuserve.com) for extensive testing under 32 and
16 bits (in XT!!!), and helping to clarify the documentation.

Suriya Kumar for testing ppp.drv with Linux, MAC, Windows 95/98/NT and his
suggestions about improving server issues (PAP authentication, dynamic IP, etc),
also for commenting some miscelaneous errors in LCP negotiation. He tested 
the driver for connecting other OSs to a Minix Server via PPP!!!

Nicolas Ecarnot (nicolas.ecarnot@bigfoot.com) for informing a compilation error
under 16 bits or without CCP support.

Thomas Miller (tmiller@flex.com) who help reporting a loop problem in LCP
ack negotiation and test the fixes.

The PAP/CHAP routines were based from the LCP and IPCP routines, also getting
idea about negotiation from RFCs.

The md5.c and md5.h files are extraction from RFC1321, the MD5 Message-Digest 
Algorithm. The author of that RFC is Ronald L. Rivest. Check RFC1321 for 
details of implementation.

The chat program is public domain software, and was written by Al Longyear
and the original author is Karl Fox. Check the chat.c header for more
information about contact.

All the Minix users that are testing this code and asks, giving me a lot 
of feedback and sugestions to enhance the code and documentation.
