The indications are that "etherppp" provides an Ethernet Packet
Driver interface to applications. I phrase this as indications because
I've never been able to get etherppp to avoid hanging my PC as it installs
itself in memory. If you get it to install cleanly then treat it as an
Ethernet (which kind???, hopefully DIX/Ethernet_II/regular) Packet Driver.
By default Kermit will look for a Packet Driver when its internal TCP/IP
stack begins.
