The installation went very smoothly, as well ass the setup of X and everything else. The only problem we have yet to solve is how to establish a PPP connection. I've printed all the pages in the FAQ and handbook pertaining to the subject, but I still can't seem to get it to work. I'm unsure of the exact modem it is (I can find out if you need it) but I know that it is a Modem/Sound Card combonation. In windows95 it runs on COM3 and COM4. In freebsd i know that the corresponding ports for COM3 and 4 is /dev/cuaa2 and /dev/cuaa3 but for somer reason the script won't work with either. When I try to run the script it says "/dev/cuaa2 not configured" and "/dev/cuaa3 not configured" In fact it does that with cuaa1 - cuaa4 for some odd reason cuaa0 will let the script run, but the modem doesn't dial or anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Chris Ps- Using XFree86 and the Mac64 server how do I start X in 16bpp? It always boots in 8 bpp. C To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
