I had previously installed FreeBSD 4.7, recompiling the kernel for using = the PPPoE option in the ppp.conf file, without pppoed, and it worked = without error messages. But now I installed FreeBSD 4.8 and didn=B4t = recompile the kernel, just used pppoed along with ppp, but get the = aforementioned error message. What could be the problem? BTW All works fine, in fact, I haven=B4t changed the default rules for = the "OPEN" firewall option. Thanks in advance, Alfonso Romero
