This is what the ppp(8) manpage says: Supports client callback. ppp can use either the standard LCP callback protocol or the Microsoft CallBack Control Protocol (ftp://ftp.mi- crosoft.com/developr/rfc/cbcp.txt). So the answer to your first questions is yes. > And, When I install 3.3-release, I want to use Callback too, is it > supported too? Out of the box, I doubt that you'll be able to _install_ using ppp callback. Once you've got FreeBSD installed, the story changes. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
