But with my knowledge so far working with my FREEBSD2.2.7 box its possible i might be missing somthing in one of the 7 files a person is suppose to edit to establish a connection using the ppp co- mmand.I have a feeling that my modem is not correctly configured yet and if its possible could you please tell me how i might go about doing this task.when i type dmesg | fgrep sio it says my modem is on cuaa0. Thats great now what do i do to get the modem to dial out when i use the term command.Right now when i use term it doesnt do anything it just hangs and i have to type ~. to get my cursur back. I would really like to get this up and running. If possible could you send me a sample copy of a running ppp.conf file that i could copy to my ppp.conf with just a miminal amount of editing.same for linkup etc....... I know i will get this going one of these days its just a matter of Patience:) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
