hi...I was SO happy when I fund this small BSD version, 'cause I was = looking around an unix-based OS to try apart windows.. but I cannot = connect to the internet with this little BSD version..=20 I make the connection thru a modem device, and I download the modem = version of pico; I follow exaclty all of the instuctions to configure = the ppp stuff (with the dialup script) but when I finish and try to = connect, I only get an error message like this: // usr interfase=3Dtun0 child failed. //=20 I thought bsd wasn't recognizing my modem (docked at com3 -- 2 on bsd), = so I swap the port number (0,1and 2) but but the result were always the = same. The only difference I saw is, when I set it in #2 -the 'right one'- it = takes a few seconds to return the error message (don't know if in that = time the system is 'searching' the modem), and when I set the number to = another port, the error message is instantaneously. Do you have any idea what's going on? -my modem is NOT a winmodem. Can anybody teach me how to 'search the modem by my own' in BSD and tell = the system: 'hey, you! here is the modem..' or something like that? please, help me!! I really want to use this OS ..and adopt it as my main = system =20 thanks in advance... Jp.
