Hi!
I am a beginner at FreeBSD and have some questions concerning logging on
to my ISP. I currently have the FreeBSD 2.2.2 CD from Walnut Creek.
I have installed the OS without any real problems. I tried to dial in using
by US Robotics X2 on Com2 using the PPP->term->atdt commands. It would dial
in fine, and give me an IP address. When I push "alt-F2" to go to my other
terminal screen, and tried to ping yahoo.com, I would get a "no route to
host" error message. Same thing happens to every ping, ftp, and traceroute
I would attempt. The only configuration I have made to my modem is through
the /stand/sysinstall utility.
My ISP does dynamix IP addressing, so I put .lvdi.net under the host name
(lvdi.net is my ISP's domain).
Do you people have any idea what i should do to connect properly? Can you
be specific in your answers? I would really appreciate any help, as my UNIX
education would greatly expand once I get internet access through my UNIX
OS. Thank you very much for your time.
