Greetings:

   I am currently attempting to set up a gateway on my FreeBSD 2.1.7 server.
I have followed the tutorial (which is excellent, by the way) through most
of the steps and so far, all seems to be working fine.  I can't, however,
get the -alias switch to work when I start ppp.  When "ppp -auto -alias
demand" is typed, ppp comes up with the statement, "Usage: ppp [-auto |
-direct | -dedicated] [system]".  Is there an updated version of ppp for
2.1.7 which would allow aliasing, am I missing a line in a configuration
file, or, [gulp] do I need to upgrade to 2.2?  If anyone has a solution,
please let me know.

   Thanks to all who have helped me out with my previous questions.  It's
great to be able to reach such a dedicated group of volunteers whenever
these questions arise.

Take Care,



Andrew Stevens.
