Here is my problem(I think pretty simple: I just got pppd to work right and now when I try and ping anything(including the localhost) I get this error: ping: sendto: Permission denied (this is repeated over and over) I am running FreeBSD3.1 . I have my resolv.conf file set to my ISP's nameserver which I thought was about it to get IP address mapping. Could someone explain to me what that error message means and point me in the right direction to solving it?
