Howdy.

Have a USR Sportster 33.6k modem thats not playing well.  What are the
necessary steps to troubleshooting problems with the modem talking to
FBSD 4.3-RELEASE?  I've searched through the hand book and the archives
with no luck.  Windows 98 reports that this thing is on COM2.  However,
when I boot up FBSD (with SIO0 and SIO1 active in the kernel) it does
not see the modem.  Also, when I do a netstat -a tun0 it says the
device was not found.  I did make it in /dev.

Secondly, I was given a couple of excellent articles on setting up VPN
with two FBSD boxes.  However, all of these articles deal with both
sides having static addresses.  How do I do this if one side has a
dynamic address??

The articles given to me by Etienne de Bruin (et@quidel.com) are:

And now, its time, for some useless, bandwidth wasting words of wisdom:
What I like about MS is its loyalty to customers!
