Hi. I successfully installed FreeBSD 4.1. I must say that so far I'm
quite impressed. But I can't fully enjoy my BSD experience due to the
fact that I cannot connnected. I followed the instructions in the
handbook where you were talking about PPP connections. Though I did
what was written (or at least I believe I did), I still cannot get onto
the net. So I was wondering if you had a bit of time on your hands (5-7
minutes) to help me. I'll give out my ISP informations and all that,
and I'd like it very much if you could tell me what to do.

It's a PAP connection. I always have a dynamic IP (changes every time I
connect). Modem is on COM2 (and it worked under Linux)
Could you help me figure where to put these infos? Or could you suggest
a software such as pppconfig (Debian PPP tool) that would make
connecting (from console) painless? Thank you.
I also have a problem with emacs20, I can't use my alt key as my Meta
key (in console). Is it a BSD problem or an emacs one? If it's an
emacs problem don't waste your time looking for an answer I can find it
myself.
Thank you
Vicnent Foley
