Once it gets incorporated you can *not* supply just any old address for the ISP's end. You MUST give him 0.0.0.1 if you want his address to be dynamically assigned. It's all explained in the sppp manpage. I suggest looking at the isdn4bsd FAQ. I put an entry in it explaining how to go about getting sPPP working. Doesn't anybody _look_ at the documentation ? --- Gary Jennejohn Home - garyj@muc.de Work - garyj@fkr.dec.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isdn" in the body of the message
