Make the ISP section of your ppp.conf look something like your_isp: set phone 5551212 deny chap accept pap set authname your_userid set authkey your_password set openmode active set timeout 600 And start ppp with ppp -alias -auto your_isp I do this with a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d that just runs the above command. The script name has to end with a .sh and execute permissions need to be set in order for it to be run automatically at system boot. > On my 95 client side, I have the gateway set to 192.168.200.1 (my unix machines IP). I have my dns set to 206.165.5.1 (my ISP's dns) I can telnet to my UNIX machine, but no go on other applications such as web browser and email. In /etc/rc.conf make sure you enable packet forwarding, gateway_enable="YES" > Any information would be appreciated. I have read the ppp manual pages a couple of times and the handbook doesn't help me much. Did you try the Pedantic PPP Primer? Oh yea, please fix your mailer too. You need to set it to break your lines somewhere around 72 characters and make it quote using a > or some other visible character. Your highlighted quotes aren't visible to those of us using Unix MUA's.
