I have to put my ISP's address? 4. when I run the freebsd, the machine configure the system first, right? then I got the message which is "netgraph.ko" failed to register! 17. What does this mean? I set up as handbook tells to do so. But I still can't connect to the Net. I think that the problem is the host name I put when the installation.

To Freebsd.org

I would like to ask you some questions about the setting for = PPPoE.

1. when I install freebsd, I have to put the name of Host, Domain, = IPv4=20 Gateway etc. then, what should I put the host name? It = will have=20 something to do with the connection to the net? Can I put what ever I = want? (in=20 Handbook, they put foo.bar.com)

2. in /etc/rc.conf, what should I put the name in the line,=20 hostname=3D"myname.my.domain"?

3. in /etc/hosts, the handbook tells us we have to put as = below,

127.0.0.1 localhost.bar.com local

127.0.0.1 localhost.bar.com.

10.0.0.1 foo.bar.com foo

10.0.0.1 foo.bar.com.

But What should I put in my case? I have to put my ISP's = address?

4. when I run the freebsd, the machine configure the system first, = right?=20 then I got the message which is "netgraph.ko" failed to register! = 17.

What does this mean?

I set up as handbook tells to do so. But I still can't connect = to=20 the Net. I think that the problem is the host name I put when the=20 installation.

Do you think that there are any other reasons why I got in trouble = with=20 PPPoE? I really need your help. Thank you.

Sincerely,
