pppd pty equivilent in FBSD

[Rob Zietlow]

Good day List, 

I have a question about pppd.  We use ppp over ssh for a VPN solution into 
work. The script works on linux, but not in freebsd because the 
implementation of pppd that comes with freebsd does not recognize the pty 
command.  When I attempt to connect up I get the following. 

testee# bash bin/vpn.init start
Waiting for connection...
Using interface ppp0
/usr/sbin/pppd: In file /usr/home/rob/vpn/options.vpn: unrecognized option 
'pty'
Connection Failed

This appears to be the last piece of the puzzle for me in order to get this to 
work. So it leaves me to ask Is there an equivalent in Freebsd? 

From the pppd man page on a linux machine. 

       pty script
              Specifies that the command script is to be used to communicate 
rather  than  a  specific terminal  device.   Pppd will allocate itself a 
pseudo-tty master/slave pair and use the slave as its terminal device.  The 
script will be  run  in  a  child  process  with  the  pseudo-tty  master as 
its standard input and output.  An explicit device name may not be            
given if this option is used.  (Note: if the record option is used  in 
conjuction  with the pty option, the child process will have pipes on its 
standard input and output.)

The fbsd pppd's man page doesn't list anything for pty, and a google doesn't 
turn up much. 

Thanks for your time.
