Startup hangs when PPP is started during boot. Problem also apparent in earlier versions. >How-To-Repeat: Configure machine to use NIS and Usermode PPP on startup. see: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-nis.html and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/pppoe.html >Fix: in /etc/rc.network where usermode ppp is started: su -m ${ppp_user} -c "exec ${ppp_command}" 'su' is hanging as NIS has not yet been started. NIS needs to be started prior to any use of 'su' in rc files. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
