After installing freebsd over ftp I'm having troubles getting my modem to work. It works fine in win/dos still, but when i try to use it in freebsd it doesn't respond. I go into the ppp utility and it opens up like this: User process PPP written by Toshinaru OHNO log Level is 09 Can't open /etc/ppp/ppp.secret Warning: No password entry for this host in ppp.secret Warning: All manipulation is allowed by anyone in the world Usring interface: tun0 Interactive mode. ppp ON myname> show modem device: /dev/cuaa1 speed 38400 cs8, none parity connect count: 0 outq: 0 outqlen: 0 ppp ON myname> term at this point... i can go into term, but the only thing that i can that results in any reaction is type "~?" and "~." and "~p" nothing is echoed to the screen, no AT commands ahve any response.. nothing. it just sits there with only those three commands responding. Sometimes i can quit out of the ppp prograrm with no problems.. Othertimes I'll type quit and it will jsut hang my system, forcing me to reboot. My only idea is that when I installed freebsd the instalation didn't complete properly.. It got to the point where it said it was 100% done downloading the the man pages.. then froze. I heard my modem hang up, waitied a bit and reboot. I was able to bring bsd up by booting with /kernel.GENERIC... I configured the kernel the same way i did when I installed it, and when my modem was working, but no response from my modem now. Can anyone shed some light on this problem? -Shane
