Just to know how it's done. I'd like to give dial-up access to the net to some friends through my home sub-net. My underutilised ADSL connection can handle the traffic. The FreeBSD box sure can. I can see I'd need to do some adduser stuff. But what would they see on the other end? Most of these people won't want a shell account. They'll want PPP (am I using the correct terms here). And most of them will be Windows users. What would I need to do? Point me in the right direction please. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited The FreeBSD Diary - my [mis]adventures http://www.FreeBSDDiary.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
