Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I just tried using ppp in the background (first time). It dialed, connected. Everything went fine, but when I tried to look for it to terminate it it was not listed by ps. I tried ps -a from both the user that started it and from root. I tried man ps, but could not find how to list daemons. I also tried "telnet localhost 3000" as suggested in "man ppp" and said connection refused. Did I miss a parameter in ps?
