Greetings and Help!!

	I am having considerable difficulty getting kernel PPP to work with
FreeBSD; I am trying to connect with my provider, ClarkNet in Maryland,
and am getting the following activity in /var/log/messages when running
with both debug and kdebug:

Obviously, my kernel is build with ppp device support, so I'm wondering
what could be the problem?  As an aside, this very same kernel daemon is
used under RedHat Linux , and using Linux I connect to Clarknet almost
seamlessly.

	Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer...

Sincerely,
