I installed from the first cd and everything went smoothly, I can get kde up and my graphics are good however I have a few queries. I just want to get netscape up and running and get online with my isp and then I take my time and learn more about freebsd. I have a 56k v90 pci modem, how do I know which port it is on? Once it is using the correct port do I just need to edit the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file? Netscape is in a port, I tried to do a make on it but it tried to connect to an ftp site and stopped. What's the easiest way to get netscape up and running, surely I have everything I need on 4 cds.
