Hi, I hope this is the correct location for the question and appologise if it is not ! Currently I am using tun0 as my interface for ppp, however as it interferes with my ed1 and also means that sendmail wants to dial out on startup - where I want to defer all requests until late at night or else I am calling out for other reasons. I am thinking that it would be better if I was to set up ppp in the kernel not as a tun device. I am under some confusion - is there a difference to sppp and ppp ? I am running 4.0-current and apparently have a choice, sppp seems to be in rc.conf but what does the s mean. If this is a question for current I have just re-subscribed and will post it to current if nessecary. the manual tries to escape ppp over tun ! any help most thankfully appreciated ! -- Tim. I'd rather boot Bill Gates than Windoze any day. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
