Being part of group network enables you to run ppp -direct and nothing else.

BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. How have you got things set up ? Are you exec'ing ppp - ie, the ppp -direct process should have a parent process id of 1. I'm assuming that this is over a modem link too. If you still can't get it working, send me the details. There's info in the FAQ http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/userppp.html about what log levels to set etc. > Sigi. > Cheers. -- Brian <brian@Awfulhak.org>, <brian@FreeBSD.org>, <bri@OpenBSD.org> <http://www.Awfulhak.org>; Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
