Hi all, I was wondering how I could get internet access using ppp in combination with slirp. I have a ppp connection through Windows Dial-Up Networking that allows me to use slirp, however the ppp program in FreeBSD doesn't acknowledge that I'm in ppp mode after I have activated slirp on the server I dialed. I've read that typing "~p" in terminal mode puts it in packet mode (which it does) but is this enough? I also might need some help with my "hosts", "ppp.config", and other files if anyone is willing - I have read and followed the handbook's instructions, but I want some additional guidance if that's ok... btw, I noticed that typing "~?" while in terminal mode gives me the start of the help message followed by garbled characters - I assume I need the "screen" program?
