Hello,

My pc runs FreeBSD 2.2.5.  I am unable to configure the ISP dialout
configuration right.
I followed the information available from
www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/ and from the online handbook,  but no
success so far.
When "dial isp(or whatever shows up at the parameter entry)" after the
console gets ppp prompt,  the console shows the following:

dial attempt:1 of 1(or similar)
dial OK!
login OK!
ppp on ABC> Packet mode.
ppp on ABC> _

However,  I cannot hear any sound off the modem.
Also,  "ifconfig tun0" gives "tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500". And, someteimes it reads "tun0:
flags=8010<UP,POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500".  I've never seen "tun0:
flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500".

I changed the parameters in /etc/rc.conf according to the section 15.1.6
of the handbook(<- is this only good for 2.2.7?)

If I type "atd 1234567"<enter>from ppp, it dials 1234567,  but it does
not communicate with the modem on the other end.  And,  it ends up with
the "+FHS" and the line is disconnected.  


Question:
1) How to fix this problem and force ppp to connect to the modem(sio0).

2) Any program from ports collection necessary?

Thank you.

Tetsuya Watanabe
