Dear sirs,

I am a begginner in FreeBSD using and have problems I didn't find
in FAQs.

1.

I run ppp over "tun0" device.
I connect to my ISP interactively using term command.
After connect is established I give "set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.255/0
255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0", "delete ALL" and "add 0 0 HISADDR" commands.
The checking with "ifconfig tun0" gives something like that 8050<UP,
RUNNING and so on> x.x.x.x --> y.y.y.y netmask ...

I set my private inet address to 10.0.0.1
My FreeBSD version# 2.2.5

The problem is I can't log in Internet. My "lynx" gives "Unable to access
to remote host" when I query a remote address.
(I didn't specify "nameserver" in /etc/resolv.conf as in MS WINDOWS
Internet client may not specify DNS server. It must be I'm wrong here.)

What did I wrong? Help me, please.

2.

Are there any SMTP/POP3 clients for (MS)DOS?


Great thanx in advance.
Boris
