I sent this over to the newbies list..but then remembered no questions over
there(sorry for those of you over their too...). 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?


Thanks for any help in advance! :)
