I'm using FreeBSD v2.2.5, installed from a CDROM. I've got a problem : the initial connection (from a W**-95 client) is done all right (I can ping an machine from the client through the Ethernet I/F of my FreeBSD machine), but ppp does not stop after the end of the connection. Thus, mgetty is never awakened, and I can't make another connection from the client to the FreeBSD server (because ppp does not know how to answer the modem call). Do I need to patch ppp, so that it "exit()s" when the ppp connection is over or is there a newer version of ppp ? (or am I missing some black magic in the configuration files ?)
