I just downloaded PicoBSD, and I'm having a problem.  I'm pretty new to
UNIX, and very new to FreeBSD, so if this is just an operator error, please
excuse me.

I've run through the dialup script to get things my ppp properly configured.
Everything seems to work okay, but then when I try to invoke the command
'ppp -background dialup' I get an error message back that says "child failed
(errdead)".

I don't know what could be causing this, I believe that everything is set up
correctly.  My modem is resides on cuaa2 (Com3 in DOS or cua2 in Linux), and
it works fine there, so I'm assuming that is not the problem.

If you can shed any light on my problem, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Kris Lander
