Wilkinson" Subject: hardwired PPP Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm interested in setting up a hardwired PPP link between two machines in an instructional lab (they shouldn't get the idea that Ethernet is everything that there is). I've spent some time searching the archives and the docs and didn't find anything. There are two questions I have in particular: - exactly how do I need to wire a 9-pin modem cable for this purpose? - how do I set up the static routes so that things get from one end to the other?
