I'm having a rotten time setting up a FreeBSD machine for dialup IP
access from a Win95 workstation. I went through the iijppp man pages,
and it looks like I've got it set up correctly. The problem comes when I
log in, then try to run the ppp -direct command. Here's what I get

Here's a trimmed version of ppp.secret. I first though that the IP addresses
specified here might have been causing the problem, so I removed them,
but it made no difference.

Here's the ppp.conf, sans comments: I've tried addresses within our
class C address range, both within 192.168.2.X, and as here, under
different class C addresses.
default:
disable pap
enable chap
enable proxy
set authname horst
set ifaddr 192.168.5.10 192.168.4.11
Unfortunately, this got dropped in my lap with about 24 hours notice
before it had to work, and almost half of that is gone already. I would
really appreciate some help on this.
Basically, the only requirement is that the Win95 machine call into our
network and be able to surf our web server, though going out through our
T1 to surf the rest of the net is kind of important as well. Our Class C
address is not subnetted. I'm going to try to set up kernel PPP, though
I'm not sure if I'll need to set up my own proxy arp setup since the net
isn't subnetted.
