sounds like you have a firewall on. try loggin in as root, type ipfw list if you see a listing for deny ip any any type, ipfw add 0001 permit ip from any to any then, vi /etc/defaults/rc.conf set the firewall_type to open this is shooting from the hip. if i'm horribly wrong, don't blame me, just blame my 20 second thinking. -mark On Wed, 21 Apr 1999, Rhavenn StormWing wrote: :>Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 22:23:06 -0500 :>From: Rhavenn StormWing <lists@rhavenn.net> :>To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG :>Subject: Ping Error Question :> :>I just got pppd to work right and now when I try and ping :>anything(including the localhost) I get this error: :> :>ping: sendto: Permission denied (this is repeated over and over) :> :>I am running FreeBSD3.1 .
