I seem to be having one major problem. My modem drops the line on the transition between kermit and pppd (or just after pppd starts). I used the info from the web site to get the dialer scripts and info up. Any tips. (I'm getting the addresses dynamically set via ppp... I've got a local ethernet with a class C here.) So far I've been using OS/2 to connect in until the FreeBSD box is up. Does the bidir comm port come into play here. I tried with and without the getty established and using the cuaxx and ttyxx device. I'm running a Telebit T2500 to a v34 modem on the other side. The Telebit's got the final T2500 rom set and has been very stable to everything else (since these roms).
