"network:*:69:beaupran", I think it's already in!!! I made my ppp to create a socket under /var/run/internet=. but ls -ld /var/run/ gives me: beaupran@outpost [2:53am] /etc> ls -dl /var/run/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root bin 512 Jul 11 02:50 /var/run// is that the problem? Maybe should I create the socket somewhere else? but where?
