I have it up and running, but am wondering about alot of what seem to be 'random' attempts to connect. I'm using -auto mode, and with no 'explicit' call for an ip outside of my local network it seems to dial in. I also seem to get a whole lot of bad attempts (more than with Win98 doing the dialing) where I hear the modem 'connect' to the other end, but I get "chat script failed". using ver 4.2 any help / pointers would be appriceated . . . thanks Pete C To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
