Namely I can't seem to get User PPP working. Now I've spoken to = Brian Somers about this and after comparing notes we still cannot figure = out why it's failing. My present theory is that the FBSD O/S might not even be talking to my = modem (perhaps there's compatibility problems between the modem and = FBSD). I have a Rockwell 56K modem, is this compatible with FBSD 2.2.6?? Also what basic modem commands can I issue to test that my FBSD is at = least talking to my modem?? I suppose once I've established this I can = then manually enter the commands from the ppp.conf file on the command = line to see if they have any subsequent effect??
