The FBSD Handbook is useless. It is sooo out of date all it does is confuse the reader who is trying to compair it to what the Complete FreeBSD book says. You can stay away from the handbook and not miss it. FBSD 4.0 now has new probe routines that can identify PCI/PNP internal modems and an rewritten User PPP environment. You must wait for the 4th edition of the complete FreeBSD book for details. The only pointers I can give you is to read the FBSD version 4.0 man pages for User PPP and mknod. mknod will allow you to assign the PNP moden by bios device and func numbers to the serial port cuaa0. mknod cuaa0 c 18 0 as per org post I am still trying to get all of it to work together. If you get a working solution please post to this subject line for others to see.

Could you possibly tell me which docs are relevant - the handbook is a bit sketchy and I do not want to screw up. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
