This is my first 60 hours using FreeBSD (3.1-RELEASE), and I'm really excited with this system, for it's stability and default security policy. I read Dan Langille's PPP article I found from a website, and I'm able to connect to internet ,but my name resolver still doesn't work. I can send and fetch mail with Netscape 4.5 (through my ISP's SMTP). I use PPP manually (interactively) as shown at his article, using IP number (not name). It's not a problem since I know my ISP's mail server IP number, but I can't go to rest of the net :(. BTW, my ISP doesn't give me a static IP and I use a single box at home (no LAN etc). So, what should I put on /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file, section ifaddr ? Or, what I have to do if I connect PPP manually using ppp prompt (interactive) ? Because'enable dns' command doesn't works. My /etc/resolve.conf consist : search centrin.net.id nameserver 202.146.255.3 nameserver 202.146.255.5 and /etc/hosts consist : 127.0.0.1 localhost That's my main problem, I hope you would help me because I'm very new to FreeBSD system. Thank You very much. Inu Wikantiyoso -- unix vs. windoze great power vs. nothing To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
