Now some of my builds working in our corporate network and use pppd on leased line and dial-in with pap/chap auth. I've built them on my FreeBSD 4.7 and sent to local admins not very familiar with unix. They've inserted disks and turn power on . A little phonetalks, a little telnet and leased channel works! Someday I'm going to create new PicoBSD build script with new build algorythm. I will be very interesting to listen about uses of Pico and changes made to it. Best wishes, Dimitri Babak
