I followed your instructions and lo and behold, got it to automatically dial when I typed "dial provider." However, got some weird messages when I asked it to dial: ppp ON 208> dial provider Warning: Add route failed: 0.0.0.0: errno: Network is unreachable Warning: Config: dns: No such key word Warning: enable: Failed 1 Dial attempt 1 of 1 Phone: (and then blah blah, it dials and lets me connect to my isp, however something is still not registering because I can't get home.netscape.com to work) here are the contents of my /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup file :" MYADDR: delete 0 add 0 0 HISADDR 208.238.64.144 add 204.215.84.1.0 0 HISADDR eeek....something tells me I'm almost getting this, like I'm a step away from getting this... good thing you people on this list are patient with the likes of us newbies. 'Cause I've discovered that once you get a problem settled, there's another. For example, there's that situation with the funky colors in X, but I'll ask y'all that later, after I get my machine connected to the 'net. thanks again! --alissa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
