Your ISP is the only one that can tell you what to do. Once you find out your PAP/CHAP username/password (if that's what your ISP is now using), take a look at the man page. If it's not very descriptive, get the latest one (http://www.FreeBSD.org/~brian). It may also be worth checking out http://www.FreeBSD.org/FAQ/userppp.html > -Spike Gronim > spork@cncn.com > > > "Hacker, n: One who hacks real good" > --Computer Contradictionary -- Brian <brian@Awfulhak.org>, <brian@FreeBSD.org>, <brian@OpenBSD.org> <http://www.Awfulhak.org> Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
