ppp has changed  a bit

here is a working ppp.conf, insert your own phone, login, password at the XXXX

# PPP  Sample Configuration File
# Originally written by Toshiharu OHNO
# Simplified 5/14/1999 by wself@cdrom.com
#
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/ppp/ppp.conf,v 1.2 1999/08/27 23:24:08 peter Exp $

default:

 #
 # Make sure that "device" references the correct serial port
 # for your modem. (cuaa0 = COM1, cuaa1 = COM2)
 #

 set device /dev/cuaa0

 set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
 set speed 115200
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1L1Q0X1 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

 set timeout 0
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
 add default HISADDR
 enable dns

papchap:

 #
 # edit the next three lines and replace the items in caps with
 # the values which have been assigned by your ISP.
 #

 set phone XXXXXX
 set authname XXXXXX
 set authkey XXXXXX


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now in /etc/rc.conf you must have the following:

 ppp_enable="YES"
 ppp_nat="NO"


As you can see I turn nat off as I have a class-C

The main difference is the lack of a default entry, it now uses the papchap
entry, and is invoked from rc.conf like other networking.

Hope this helps

- Ernie.
