hi

my school offers a hardwired PPP connection that goes into the COM port
and i cant get it to connect w/ my freebsd box (works w/ win95 using
trumpet winsock)

my ppp/options file is:
crtscts		
local
noipdefault
passive
domain unh.edu
:132.177.144.29
defaultroute

and i call `pppd /dev/cuaa0 19200`

i know the connection is set for 19200 coming out of the wall, and i know
the gateway IP is right. i have a static IP but the gateway sends it back
anyways. ( i tried using <local_ip>:<remote_ip> w/o noipdefault too).

any ideas?

ps i also have tried (unsuccessfully) calling:

`slattach -h -c -l -s 19200 /dev/cuaa0`

with the appropriate setups described in the handbook.
