Thanks to blasted MS windows and outlook crashing, I lost your message along with much other important and dear mail. I resolved the dsl/ppp problem. I decided to scrap the roaring penguin pppoe program and went back to the config files. I realized freebsd was looking at /etc/ppp/ppp.conf, not /etc/ppp.conf. I could swear I'd seen the latter in previous examples I'd been following, oh well. So I copied the file to the correct place, and finally got error messages that made sense. I tweaked it a little using a hodgepodge of examples. Now I'm flying along with DSL. Thanks to you and the others who've posted their steps/config files for this. I'm really impressed with and enjoying freebsd. Hopefuly soon I will be good enough in it to totally leave linux/windows. +--- forwarded msg from Scott -- Steve Tremblett Cisco Systems To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
