>Description:
	The User PPP section of the handbook (doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/userppp.html)
gives incorrect instructions for creating the serial (modem) device. From the handbook:
-- [snip] --
Now make the serial device with

    # sh MAKEDEV cuaa

which will create the serial devices for your system. If your modem is on sio1 or COM2 if you are
in dos, then your modem device would be /dev/cuaa1. 
-- [snip] --

>How-To-Repeat:
	Following the above instructions:

december:/dev# rm -r cuaa*
december:/dev# sh MAKEDEV cuaa
december:/dev# ls -l cuaa*
crw-rw----  1 uucp  dialer   28, 138 Jul 14 00:02 cuaaa

>Fix:
	While the rest of the document uses /dev/cuaa1 as the example device, I believe
this MAKEDEV example should show creation of all of the serial devices (analogous to what
a 'sh MAKEDEV all' would create).
