Hi heres my question when i installed FREEBSD2.2.7 It asked me if i wanted to do additional network setup. i hit yes thinking this is how i will be able to configure ppp to reach my ISP and cruse the internet.None of this has taken place yet.Im starting to feel like i should of answered no to that Question. Another thing is i noticed in reading the man pages it says when i type at the command#ppp it should say pppON<AWFULHACK: somthing like this.Mine just says pppON> and i know this isnt right.Is there a way to reverse what i did and start over.Im just going to be a single user that wants to use FREEBSD 2.2.7 to surf the internet "Nothing" fancy Heres is what i see on boot up if this helps: Doing initial network Setup:hostname ppp0:flags=8010<POINTTOPOINT,MULTICAST>mtu1500 lo0:flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST>mtu16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 writing to routing socket:Network is unreachable add net default:gateway 0.0.0.0:Network is unreachable Doing additional network Setup:portmapybindypbind:domainename not set Aborting I hope this helps a little? I cp all my etc/ppp/ppp.sample stuff where they should go. so that part should be OK! One more Quick Question in my /etc/ppp.conf file i copyied to the pmdemand pap or chap to myname which i think is my name i use to my ISP my key i put my password i use to login to my ISP Can you tell me if i did this right It was a little confusing what to put there exactly? I have all my ISP information available if i need to redo it Thankyou in Advance PS! Ive read the man pages and sill not getting it!
