hello - i'm currently trying to set up a couple of FreeBSD machines for a friend and have one (maybe little) problem - one of them should be connected via ISDN to a provider using dynamic ip numbers - we have tested the ISDN card (german teles/s0) on another machine with a static ip provider - and this worked fine - but how do i set ISDN up to work with dynamic ip numbers ? here's the state so far: * kernel works fine so far using bisdn 0.97 (finds ISDN card and can communicate with it - tested via static ip provider on a nother machine) * to make dynamic ip's working it looks like the isdnpppd is the only way - so i patched & compiled all the stuff from the BISDN-ppp-FreeBSD2.2.tgz package (btw. we are using FreeBSD 2.2.2) and tried some simple experiemnts to get it working - but due to the lack of documentation i did'nt get very far best would be is someone who has set up his FreeBSD machine to use dynamic ip's to his provider can give me some hints on how to configure all the stuff and how it works - i'm at the moment a bit unclear of how all this works together (the ipi and the ppp interfaces - bisdnd and isdnpppd) if you need any further information please ask thanks in advance for any hint t -- thomas graichen - graichen@rzpd.de graichen@OpenBSD.org graichen@FreeBSD.org perfection is reached, not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away antoine de saint-exupery
