Hi,

Tar: https://dianne.skoll.ca/projects/rp-pppoe/download/rp-pppoe-4.0-beta1.tar.gz

Changes since 3.15 are below.  The obvious standout change is that the plugin

Changes from version 3.15 to 4.0:

- SPDX-License-Identifier: tags added to most source files

- rp-pppoe.so plugin: Modified to compile against both pppd >= 2.5.0 and
  pppd < 2.5.0.

- pppoe-server: If -L or -R option is specified as 0.0.0.0, then IP allocation
  is delegated to pppd.

- pppoe-server: New -g option specifies the path of the rp-pppoe.so plugin to
  use with pppd in kernel-mode PPPoE.

- pppoe-server: New -U option specifies a UNIX-domain control socket.  This
  lets you send control commands to the server while it is running; see the
  pppoe-server man page for details.

- All source code: Many cleanups and use of standard types like uint16_t rather
  than ones we define.

- All source code: Support for OSes other than Linux has been dropped.

- Documentation: Updated fro modern Linux systems.
