Here is the deal. I am on a machine that dual boots win98/FreeBSD 2.2.8 I am writing this from the Win98 side of life since I am currently lacking internet connectivity in FreeBSD. My access to some of the config files are currently limited so I am going from memory as I write this, forgive anything blatently stupid ; ). I have an ISP that uses PAP authentication and I am using the userland PPP. My /etc/ppp.conf consists of the pmdemandPAPorCHAP section of the distribution sample file and the default section of the sample file modified according to my ISP info. This basically means I changed the device entry, phone number and the AuthKey and AuthName entries. I can successfully connect to the ISP and 'ifconfig tun0' shows me a local and remote IP address. However if I try 'traceroute -n' I can't get anywhere, 'ping' gets nowhere as well. The ppp link is the only network connection for this machine. I hope someone can give me a clue as to what is wrong, because I am totally baffled a this point. As a side note, I have successfully gotten FreeBSD to work with this ISP before. I recently made a switch back to them and to my surprise I can't get anything to work anymore.
