Good evening,
I'm experimenting with pppd which uses direct cable connection with some external device (I'm using "pppd notty" option to communicate with pppd directly with stdin/stdout).
I have ppp0 working, routing et cetera.. Everything works just fine:
ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
(all other interfaces - en0, en1, etc are down at this moment)
Now I want to set system-wide HTTP proxy for this connection, but I've realised that system don't know anything about my ppp0.
As far as I understand, proxy settings are tied with NetworkService, so I have to create a network service first (with SCNetworkConfiguration or scutil), right? I believe it's possible because you can add PPPoE/L2TP/PPTP, which is basically PPP connection, but what's about my 'custom-made' PPP connection (which doesn't use any modems)? Unfortunately I can't find a working example.
Can you please suggest something? I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.
Best regards,
Vadim.
