Hi. I'm trying to get my dip connection to the university working again
(after having upgraded from 2.2.7->3.1 and now 3.2). My script worked
with
2.2.7 but not since (and the Win95 script still works).  The modem
works, 
dials in, log's in, get's IP numbers but I can't ping anything apart
from 
the machine I dialled into), I have three questions:

1) Can anybody confirm that the dip port works on FreeBSD 3.2?

2) What does "ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists" from ifconfig
mean? 
Most importantly, is it an error message?

3) Any suggestions what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks,
Lawrence.

P.S. Here is the output from dip (followed by ping-ing the machine I
dial
into and the nameserver):

localhost# /usr/local/sbin/dip -v /etc/lols.dip
