[-- Attachment #1 --] After playing with I4B for a couple of days and reading almost anything I can find on the internet I have resorted to thie mail list, hope you people can help. I am running FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE with the MultiTech ISA ISDN Card, it has a Siemens chipset and is known to work with my windows 98 box. I obtained the i4b tar.gz from the ftp site and read the documents which came with it. After they told me I4B comes with my copy of FreeBSD I did not install the file. I recompiled the kernel and the ISDN is detected at start up, it adds network interfaces to the list ifconfig gives me, however it does not add special files to the /dev directory, so I can not use it. I tried using MAKEDEV, but it claims that the device names do not exisit. Can anyone help? Have I missed out a part of the install? if so do you have an idiots step by step install? Any and all information welcomed. I would like to get it connected to the internet ASAP, even if only 64k. -- Brian Wojtczak Lawyers OnLine Ltd. www.lawyersonline.co.uk astrolox@lawyersonline.co.uk [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.3017.1000" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face="Trebuchet MS" size=2>After playing with I4B for a couple of days and reading almost anything I can find on the internet I have resorted to thie mail list, hope you people can help.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Trebuchet MS" size=2>I am running FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE with the MultiTech ISA ISDN Card, it has a Siemens chipset and is known to work with my windows 98 box.
