Hi!
Still having problems configuring my ppp on freeBSD v2.2.6 machine.
I have followed the user ppp installation instructions from "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey.  

But when I run "ppp" I get the following:
    Working in interactive mode.
    Using interface: tun0
    ppp ON freebie> "dial ISP"        (I type this)
    Dial attempt 1 of 1
    dial OK!
    login OK!
    ppp ON freebie> Packet mode
    ppp ON freebie>
    ppp ON freebie>

Then it just stays in this way for ever.  NOTHING HAPPENS.

What I have also noticed, is that when I pick-up my telephone I get no modem connection sound.  But what is even more interesting is that when I disconnect my phone line from computer I get the same printout as above!  Maybe my modem is not working?

Please help!

Thanks...

Joseph
