I'm trying to hookup my DirecPC service to FreeBSD. Heard a rumor it could be done but don't have any details. Below is what DirecPC said, pretty lame. Any info or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Brian D. Schieber, M.S. Software Developer 21204 Westside Hwy SW Vashon Island, WA 98070 206.463.2451 voice 206.437.4240 cell 603.687.2608 efax brian_schieber@email.com Thank you for contacting DirecPC Technical Support Service with your request regarding use of BSD. I apologize for the inconvenience due to this issue. Currently, DirecPC and DirecDuo are designed specifically for MicrosoftTM WindowsTM Operating Systems. In order to connect to your account the terminal or laptop must be connected to the DPC dish through the adapter have the DPC software installed and running a Windows 98 or higher OS. I hope this information proves useful. If you have any further questions you can email us back, call 1-800-347-3272 or visit our website at www.direcpc.com. We apologize for any inconveniences. Thank you for your patronage and continued support.
