Hello Everyone,
	From the subject title this a newbie question. For the life
of me I can't seem to copy the _ppp.conf_ file I am working on
to a floppy. First I formatted a MS floppy, _fdformat
/dev/rfd0_ and also did fdformat /dev/fd0, both got results.
With those two disks I enterd the /etc/ppp/ file where my
ppp.conf resides and tried _cp ppp.conf /dev/rfd0_ and also
tried _cp /etc/ppp/ppp.conf /dev/rfd0_ plus I tried cp
_ppp.conf /dev/fd0_ etc. Then I ventured into mcopy by
installing it via /stand/sysinstall with a post install
upgrade. With mcopy installed I tried _mcopy /etc/ppp/ppp.conf
a:_ and my purpose of all this is to bring a copy of the file
I'm working to my Unix users group next week. I am trying to
create a PAP, ppp.conf file so I can logon tomy ISP Netcom,
which has dynamic IP for it's customers. TheLinux machine I'm
sending this from had a GUI for setting it up. I really want
to stick with FreeBSD 2.2.6 on the dedicated machine I bought
for BSD. Please, any help would be appreciated.
