Hello. I have recently installed FreeBSD 3.0 on my computer. I am trying to connect to the internet through a local ISP. I have a PnP modem and have modified the source using a FAQ found on the FreeBSD web server and the modem works correctly. I have printed the pages from the hand book for setting up a ppp connection and have followed it to the letter, as far as I can tell. When I type ppp from the shell I get ppp ON foo:. I can then type term and using ATDT dial into my ISP. After connecting it goes into packet mode and I can run ping in the background and hit my ISP. If I try to use the command ppp -auto provider I get an error saying Chat failed. I never hear the modem dial. I have tried to change the dial string but can not find anything that will work. Do you have any suggestions that I might try. Thanks, Tim Stinnett Flatpickin' Just DU IT!
