It is my intention that the Windwos 95 clients on the LAN as well as the FreeBSD box use unregistered IP addresses for their LAN interfaces. I am using EROLS as an ISP. It seems like the logon process is failing in both interactive and automatic modes. What complicates this is the fact that there seems to be inconsistencies between the ppp man pages and the ppp tutorial on the FreeBSD web site. Has anyone done this with FreeBSD 2.1.5 and better yet using Erols as an ISp?? Thanks, Steve Blair
