The IP layer within the MachTen BSD protocol stack does not provide an interface to MacPPP or FreePPP, forcing the use of MachTen’s PPP. The OpenTransport interface to MachTen available with CU1 for Power MachTen allows the use of MacPPP, MacSLIP and other transport protocols while MachTen is running.
