Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Mon, 16 Sep 1996 16:15:51 -0700 From: Amancio Hasty Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk This is with respect of easing the configuration of pppd on FreeBSD: >I run both BSDi and FreeBSD, and the only reason I use the BSDi is for a >terminal server, since the ppp is easier to setup than FreeBSD's. All my >other servers run FreeBSD. If FreeBSD's ppp was as stable and easy to setup >as BSDi's was, I would drop the BSDi completely, since the scripts between the >two are not that much different as far as maintaining the system. In fact, I >have rewritten most of the scripts on both my FreeBSD and BSDi servers to work >more closely with the way I prefer to work anyway. > >------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Jim Sloan jsloan@livenet.net > Vice President > LiveNet, Inc. > 413 Davis St. Suite 106 Full Service Internet Provider > Virginia Beach VA 23462 Dialup and dedicated connections > Ph: 804-499-9328 Virtual Web, Email, and FTP hosting > http://www.livenet.net info@livenet.net webmaster@livenet.net >---------------------------------------------------------
