I've searched the Net and have found alot of people who have had the same
problem as I have in regards to PPP and their ISP.  The problem is, that I
haven't found a solution!  The problem is that when I try to connect to my ISP
using PPP, my ISP tries to negotiate IPX and AppleTalk protocols.  My end does
not know what these protocols are, and promptly rejects them, which in the end,
dropps the connection.  Here's some of the log output:

Phase: New Phase: Network
Phase: Unknown protocol 0x8029 (Appletalk Control Protocol)
LCP: LcpSendProtoRej
Phase: Unknown protocol 0x802b (Novell IPX Control Protocol)
LCP: LcpSendProtoRej
LCP: Received Terminate Request (19) state = Opened (9)

Is there any way to turn IPX and AppleTalk on at my end?  I'm trying to install
FreeBSD via PPP and all I have to go with is the FreeBSD boot disk!  What can I
do to prevent my side from rejecting these protocols?

Thanx for any help

LaterZ!
Darren!!
