Subject: FreeBSD and dial-up accounts Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I am using User Process PPP to dial my ISP and establish a PPP connection. For some reason, when I dial in and telnet to localhost (or 127.0.0.1), I connect the the Ascend Max router into which I dial. What can I change to make the system recognise itself as localhost? Thanks
