[-- Attachment #1 --] To Freebsd.org I would like to ask you some questions about the setting for PPPoE. 1. when I install freebsd, I have to put the name of Host, Domain, IPv4 Gateway etc. then, what should I put the host name? It will have something to do with the connection to the net? Can I put what ever I want? (in Handbook, they put foo.bar.com) 2. in /etc/rc.conf, what should I put the name in the line, hostname="myname.my.domain"? 3. in /etc/hosts, the handbook tells us we have to put as below, 127.0.0.1 localhost.bar.com local 127.0.0.1 localhost.bar.com. 10.0.0.1 foo.bar.com foo 10.0.0.1 foo.bar.com. But What should I put in my case? I have to put my ISP's address? 4. when I run the freebsd, the machine configure the system first, right? then I got the message which is "netgraph.ko" failed to register! 17. What does this mean? I set up as handbook tells to do so. But I still can't connect to the Net. I think that the problem is the host name I put when the installation. Do you think that there are any other reasons why I got in trouble with PPPoE? I really need your help. Thank you.
