My PPP problems were not on my end. It turns out that my ISP switched to server assigned DNS for security reasons (they are switching their network around- somebody sent 13 million messages of spam and now people are trying to break in to their computers in retaliation). Right now somebody at my isp gave me their nameservers current address so I can send you this from FreeBSD. I have read the manual page sections on microsoft-extensions, the "set ns" command. How do I set this to be dynamic? Thanks for all the help. -Spike Gronim spork@cncn.com "Hacker, n: One who hacks real good" --Computer Contradictionary To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
