Hi all...

I'm trying to network one 3.3R box to a win95 one using a x-over cable.

My ep0 NIC is detected at boot-time and shows "up". However, the last
message to appear before login is "Using interface tun0" or something
to that effect. Then I get:

Nov 23 19:47:36 odie ppp[1469]:tun0:warning:chat script failed
Nov 23 19:48:37 odie last message repeated 3 times

I then have to do a ^C to get a prompt.

As well, when I ping "odie" (10.0.0.1) from the win95 box "mandy"
(10.0.0.2), odie chokes with:

Nov 23 19:47:26 odie /kernel: arplookup 10.0.0.2 failed: could not allocate 
llinfo

I want the following:
3.3R <x-over> win95 <dial-up> ISP

I *have* to use win95 to connect to my ISP. Win95 won't route so I'm
pooched as far as connecting to my ISP from the FBSD box - I think.

So, for the moment, all I want is an ethernet connection between the two
boxes. Should I disable tun0 in rc.conf? Can't the "lo0, tun0 and ep0
co-exist? I thought that "routed" was suppose to do just that. What 
have I missed in my RTFM blitz? I was using the start_if.tun0 script
some time ago (different -now extinct- ISP). Could this be causing the
problem?

My rc.conf (parts)
network_interface="lo0 tun0 ep0"
ifconfig_tun0=""
ifconfig_ep0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="10.0.0.254"
gateway_enable="YES"
router_enable="YES"
ppp_enable="NO"

I have 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 blah blah in /etc/hosts-- 2 lines each.

help/advice/suggestions -- hell even &^%**# flames welcome. ;) Tia...
