Hello digital friends,

I have set up a freebsb box (v2.1.0R) in which to connect to a PPP server.
While getting tired of other "personal" OS's to dictte what i can and
cannot do, i moved to FreeBSD :) Well i have a pretty simple set of
questions.

I am only using 1 computer. This computer has 2 network interfaces, lo0
and tun0.

I use the tun0 to connect a ppp tunnel into the box. This ppp link is only
up "part time" (when i need outside access).

I read that instead of using routed..i should use gated.
So now i am doing so. Not very learned in the Art of Unix admin i am
having a little difficulty with the config of gated. it keeps pooping out
on me with a core dump after i quit a ppp session (with ijppp)

My configs are
10.1.1.1	my single system.
127.0.0.1	my localhost loopback.
141.1.1.1	my "default" dstination ppp link.

My ppp server dynamically allocates my IP so i use 141.1.1.1 as a default,
previous to th ijppp update.

So how do i configure gated to run correctly without dumping core all the
time. I connect to Merit (which is the new gated consortium) and they have
no "online" gated conig stuff.

Any gated gurus out there. your help would be much appreciated.

Please reply to me address personally as i don't subscribe to the list.

Any direction pointers would be appreciated.

Locked up behind gated,

ThanX
