Subject: PPP startup

I'm trying to setup PPP on version 2.0 of FreeBSD but I'm running into
problems. I've tried the kermit example in the faq/ppp.doc file, for
establishing the PPP connection, but have come up empty. (I've also tried
using "chat").

I keep getting "PPP is not available on this system" after I successfully login
to the system providing PPP.  

I know that kermit closes the serial port when it exits, so I have tried
using "run" and "redirect" with pppd with no success.

I'm using c-kermit 5A(190).  Any suggestions???

Thanks.
