Also, use ogin: not login (its not *that* big of a deal but it may be useful) I don't know anything about the ppp dialer you are using (and its been a *long* time since I have had to use a ppp dialer.) Let me know what happens. -Jim At 07.37 14.03.00 -0700, Ash, Uriel wrote: >Hi Everyone; > >I was wondering, has anyone managed to hook up to Earthlink with FreeBSD.
