You first need to decide if you are going to run kernel mode
ppp or user mode ppp. If you are going to run kernel mode ppp, the
pppd(8) man page gives very userful examples. The only thing I
would change is the ignore the " "~-^Uppp-~" " line in your chat
file.
If you are going to run user mode ppp, there is a very good
write up in the handbook you should read and follow. Go to www.
freebsd.org, go to the handbook and read chapter 15, PPP and SLIP.
Frankly, however, I do _NOT_ recommend you try to follow
the handbook instructions for using kernel PPP. The man page is
much better and more understandable.
I first got user level ppp running. It was then easy to get
the kernel level ppp running. Of course, the chapter in "The
Complete FreeBSD" helped a lot, but the the pppd man page is more
complete and accurate.
