Hey can anyone help....

I am trying to set up a Dial-Up Connection to my ISP using FreeBSD =
2.2.5, I have found that ppp is needed but when I try editing the =
ppp.conf after copying it from ppp.conf.sample I cannot connect, it only =
works if I give the command=20

set line /dev/cuaa0

If I try

set line /dev/cuaa1 (2 or 3)

It still wont work, when it tries to dial when set for cuaa0 it tells me =
the modem isn't configured and can't open modem ??

Can anyone tell me how to configure my modem and how to set up a Dial-Up =
connection, my ISP won't tell me as the prefer not to have UNIX-like =
connections but the still permit it....

Thanx
Ian O'Friel
