I agree. I do this kind of stuff for a living and I found the PPP stuff at
merit.edu almost completely incomprehensible.  I tried contacting the folks
at Merit, but no one there seemed to know anything about it.  I am going
to check the PPP discussion group and see if anyone there has thoughts on
this subject.  I'll post here if I get a workable solution.  Otherwise
Morningstar seems to be the only vendor with a PPP implementation for NeXT.
