I would like to use a serial port and PPP as a network interface.

During the install of FreeBSD 2.1, the opttion to use /dev/cuaa1 with PPP
was offered.

The result was that an entry was made to /etc/sysconfig using ipconfig and
/dev/cuaa1.

When the system boots, ipconfig complains that /dev/cuaa1 is an unknown
interface.

How do I get this to work?
