Setting up my first *BSD PPP connection took 10 minutes, and I spent a couple of hours with Windows 95. :-( Nevertheless, some sample setup files that make the PPP setup look "just like" a Windows 95 box from the point of view of the ISP seeing the incoming connection would be useful. A similar set of files and/or documentation that setup PPP for incoming Windows 95 connections would be useful too, for ISPs and others supporting dialin. Giles
