yeah when i try to install FreeBSD through FTP my server keeps dropping me
and I can't get all the files that I need and I can not figure out how to
install the PPP conneciton I mean I type ppp and it loads up but I can't do
anything with it, and I don't know how to set an IP for my machine since
it's just a single computer without a network other than the PPP dialin...
Thanks


how far does it get? I assume you are dialing into an isp? 

if so what exactly happens. If you're having problems using ppp to connect to your isp let me know and i'll show you what worked for me, you may get an idea from that.

if you are you need to know if your isp supports pap or chap, and whether you have a static ip address or dynamic ip addressing (more common i think).
