I got a Liiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttle prollem! :) I recently took the advice of an email aquaintance to set my sysconfig with a couple of lines. They are: network_interfaces="lo0" ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" This was to try to setup a caching nameserver on my system. After I did this, and rebooted the system, first, during bootup, if stalled at the 'recovering vi sessions', and all the cron processes in the /etc/rc file. I CTRL-C'd out of them, and got to a login prompt. After I logged in, I tried to startup ppp to login to see how things work. I typed ppp, and it did nothing. I thought that it had halted. In fact it did load, it just took a HECK OF A LONG TIME! when usually (As all FreeBSD 2.1.5 users know) it usually takes seconds. Basically, I want to try to keep the caching nameserver, and get PPP working again. Could anyone offer any suggestions, and possibly some solutions to this problem, and maybe some other suggestions that can help streamline my system as far as internet connectivity speed goes! BTW: It's a dialup 28.8 connection. Thanks for any help in advance! Jason Lixfeld
