I setup pppd on my FreeBSD 3.0-R box, but when it finishes dialing and
setting up the routes, it doesn't waork.  When I try to 'ping' someone
(ICMP), it just sits there.  I can see that its sending something out to
the modem, but I'm not getting a response.  I think this has something to
do with the routing tables, but i looked at 'netstat -r' and it seems ok.
The only thing is that the IP I specified in /etc/ppp/options is of the
dialup server, and I'm not sure if it can act as a gateway.

I've tried talking to my ISP, but the tec support staff aren't sure what
UNIX is, so obviously don't know how to setup pppd.

Thanks in advance.
