Hello,

I have setup a connection to the = internet from my=20 network using ppp with the help of the Pedantic PPP Primer.

Although this primer is good at helping = setup a=20 connection nothing is mentioned on how to close a = connection.

What I am trying to achieve = is:

A user on a windows operating system = connected to=20 the LAN can dial to the internet through my FreeBSD server.

at present this is possible by them = simply typing=20 in a URL in their browser. The modem dials when this is = done.

Now when the user wishes to be able to = stop=20 browsing they should be able to click on a button or something of the = like,=20 similar to the way windows provides a disconnect.

Has anyone been able to achieve this = and if so=20 please how?

I do not wish the user to be able to = dicsonnect by=20 using the FreeBSD Server directly. The idea is that the FreeBSD Server = will sit=20 in a corner doing its thing while the users use their windows = pc's.

Thanks,

Ivan
