Are all these problem due to computer configuration (lack of or poor conf) or hardware problem could be present? I wish to thank you all respondant to my previous question:problem setting up PPP still unresolved sincerely Filippo Moretti Dr.F.Moretti 62 Repubblica 42047 ROLO RE ITALY To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
