Well, I've read the man pages, looked at the examples, and from what I can tell I've done everything right, but I get the infamous "You may not use ppp in this mode with this label" error message when trying to set up PPP in FreeBSD 2.2.6. My /usr/home/ppp/ppplogin file says: #!/bin/sh -p exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct dialup My /etc/ppp/ppp.conf says: # # default settings used in any case # default: allow users debug phase lcp chat timeout 0 # # dialup for us # dialup: allow users set ifaddr 198.145.98.6 198.145.98.1 My /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup says: 198.145.98.6: add 198.145.98.6 netmask 255.255.255.224 HISADDR What am I missing in this configuration? According to the example in the man pages, it at least ought to get me in to PPP without giving me any errors. ;-( Any help would be greatly appreciated. -->Neil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Neil Bradley Synthcom home : http://www.synthcom.com Synthcom Systems, Inc.
