I am having problems configuring PPP to work automatically.
I followed the steps in the manual about creating/editing ppp.conf, 
ppp.linkup, etc., but when I run "ppp 'provider'", it tells me that it 
cannot find the entry for 'provider' (substituting 'provider' with my 
provider's name) and then kicks me back to the prompt. I have followed 
the instructions to the letter in the manual, but nothin' doin'.
I have the following:
USR 56K Ext on COM1
FreeBSD 2.2.5 RELEASE
Dynamic IP assigning by my provider.

Here's the catcher: when I do ALL the steps manually, it works fine and 
I get a fully functional connection.

Help?!
