ms-dns is the microsoft extension to PPP which allows the
handing down of normal DNS server addresses to a PPP client.

the original PPP protocol did not handle this.

microsoft also (as a separate option) have the ms-wins
extension to handle the issuing of wins server addresses as well.

cheers, Wiz!!
