I have a Win95 PC, a Win95 notebook, and an NT server running utilizing the FreeBSD server as a gateway. When I set up ppp on the FreeBSD server, the system constantly dials the modem to establish a connection. I have turned off inetd and I'm not doing any DNS. I have added filters to my ppp.conf file. The filters are based on the ppp.conf.filters.sample file that came with the distribution. Does anyone know how I can check to see what is causing the system to constantly dial my ISP? I would like to have it set up where a connection is established only when I "request" a connection.
