Version 1.5 of the packet aliasing (masquerading)
upgrade to FreeBSD user ppp can be found at:

    http://www.srv.net/~cmott/alias.html

User feedback was very useful in correcting
programming bugs and adding one new feature.

Bug Fixes (since 1.0):
    - Corrected fragment handling error.
    - Corrected processing error for udp packets
      with zero checksum.
    - Supports incoming connections so that
      ftp or web server can run on ppp host.

Enhancement:
    - Increased icmp support.  Will now support
      traceroute as well as ping.
