 What's new in ppp-2.4.2.
 ************************
 
-* Support for MS-CHAP v2 authentication, plus support for
-  authenticating the peer with MS-CHAP v1 or v2.
+* The CHAP code has been rewritten.  Pppd now has support for MS-CHAP
+  V1 and V2 authentication, both as server and client.  The new CHAP
+  code is cleaner than the old code and avoids some copyright problems
+  that existed in the old code.
 
-* MPPE
+* MPPE (Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption) support has been added,
+  although the current implementation shouldn't be considered
+  completely secure.  (There is no assurance that the current code
+  won't ever transmit an unencrypted packet.)
 
-* CBCP updates
+* James Carlson's implementation of the Extensible Authentication
+  Protocol (EAP) has been added.
 
-* EAP
+* Support for the Encryption Control Protocol (ECP) has been added.
 
-* PPPOE
+* Some new plug-ins have been included:
+  - A plug-in for kernel-mode PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet)
+  - A plug-in for supplying the PAP password over a pipe from another
+    process
+  - A plug-in for authenticating using a Radius server.
 
-* Password-via-pipe plugin
+* Updates and bug-fixes for the Solaris port.
 
-* Solaris updates
+* The CBCP (Call Back Control Protocol) code has been updated.  There
+  are new options `remotenumber' and `allow-number'.
 
-* ECP
+* Extra hooks for plugins to use have been added.
 
-* Radius plugin code included
+* There is now a `maxoctets' option, which causes pppd to terminate
+  the link once the number of bytes passed on the link exceeds a given
+  value.

+* There are now options to control whether pppd can use the IPCP
+  IP-Address and IP-Addresses options: `ipcp-no-address' and
+  `ipcp-no-addresses'.
 
 * Fixed several bugs, including potential buffer overflows in chat.
