You should be able to substitute the FreeBSD specific ppp configuration details and concentrate on the manual login. Pay attention to the part about starting a script to log all terminal input. This file will be the key to your final configuration. Hope this helps, Jim Ken Bolingbroke wrote: > I don't have an immediate answer to your question, but have you tried > asking your ISP?
