Thanks to Mark, I have now got User PPP running and can dial my ISP using the following script :- default: set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 28800 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 6 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" demon: set phone 13245678 set login "TIMEOUT 10 login:-\\r-login: xxxxx word ****** col ppp" set timeout 120 set ifaddr 212.228.176.164 158.152.1.222 add 0 0 158.152.1.222 However I get the following warning :- Add route failed: 0.0.0.0 errno network is unreachable What does this mean and can I cure it? Secondly, I am trying to use netscape to get onto the net, and when I launch it I get the following errors :- Netscape is unable to locate the server home.netscape.com the server does not have a DNS entry Warning : the following hosts are unknown :- myname.my.domain home.netscape.com home6.netscape.com internic.net When I try to update the identity information it won't accept my ISP's server names etc, rejecting them with Host unknown messages. I Have tried to setup a standalone system in accordance with the FreeBSD users manual, although once I have done this I can't start Netscape! I'm sure the problem is to do with domain names etc. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated, and probably tried over the course of another sleepless night!
