I have a minimal default: segment in ''ppp.conf'' after entering the command ''term'' I atdt dial , then manually enter user name and password. After which I receive a string of garbage. The response time after sending the password doesn't seem to be sufficient for me to enter ''~p'' . How can I eliminate the possibility of a failure to switch to ppp packet mode on my out of the box (4 cd set) 2.2.8? |-( ,,, To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
