I have a customer who wants to do MLPPP over frame-relay which gets 
delivered to us as PVCs on an ATM DS3.  In looking into whether or not 
this is a supported feature (FN was't much help...it's a 3640 with 12.2 
mainline IOS), I found that it appears it may be...but the suggested 
config is to use a virtual-template

int atm...
  pvc ...
   proto ppp virtual-template...

Then put the virtual-template into a multilink group.  Assuming this 
works, it seems the limited number of supported virtual-template 
interfaces would severly limit the number of customers we could do this 
with.

What's the minimum IOS version to get MLPPP over frame-relay on the 
customer end?  IIRC, they're using an 18xx router.
