My experience in installing and using Brad Clements Async PPP from
Clarkson was the same.  The 'usage: ...' message was wrong and,
when testing with a DOS KA9Q PPP version, a core dump would result
when executed.  The fact that this code was developed on a Sun
386i might be part of the problem.

I would suggest either using a Sun 386i (aka doorstop) to install
and test the code released through omnigate.clarkson.edu, OR 
create a SunOS (4.0.x/4.1) version using Drew Perkins' BSD4.3
PPP code (lancaster.andrew.cmu.edu).  If someone has gotten this
code to work in a SunOS 4.0.x or 4.1 system, I would also like to
know.  I tried with a Sun 3/60 SunOS 4.1 system.
