Hi, Now that the cable-modem is running, I want to set my serial line up for dial-in pppd (kernel). I'm already able to dial in for shell access. Knowing I'd do this someday, I've saved away several dial-in pppd messages on this list as well as searched the archive. Numerous references are made to pp= in gettytab. The man page for gettytab (2.2.6-Release) states that 'pp' isn't used. The Handbook also makes no reference to using pp for dial up pppd. Should I bother trying it? I'm looking to have things work exactly as what I see from my ISP. Specifically, after the modems connect, I want a "login:' prompt, followed by 'Password:' then have pppd take over. BTW, I need to user pppd for reasons I will not get into. Thanks, MikeC To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
