 Oops .... I assumed you were running 2.2.1 or older.

rc.conf is the new replacement.

You need /etc/sysconfig .

It is part of the binary package and it is modified
during the installation procedure. It is very hard
to imagine how you could have avoided the creation
of this file. I assume you have looked in the right
place and also have been careful with your use of
the rm command.

I generally modify this file to set up user ppp, i.e.
modify sendmail flags, routing, etc ...

Regards ...

Hi helpful fbsd buffs,
I  have successfully installed & got ppp working.
Next step is set up a LAN running TCP/IP.
I have discovered I have no sysconfig file...is this normal Docs seem
to indicate that install creates one.
What should I do
The DEC 21401 card is detected at de0
now what ??
Thanks
