Cool. Why is stuff like this not part of the standard FreeBSD package? I was fighting with ppp too and had to learn a lot of stuff that is really totally irrelevant. It's really sad that just to become not 'too user friendly' (maybe because it smells too much of M$) great helps like these seem to be frowned upon by the gurus.

I know the ppp frustration too! I can get my old 486 machine to connect to the modem, connect to my ISP but only if I do it all manually. Once I get this down it's off to work out how to do e-mail........... I went looking for the file below but couldn't find it. I did find it here http://www.jps.net/fozzyb/FreeBSD.html however. but it you are like me and just want to get the thing working with minimum of hocus pocus / witchcraft / other arcane involvement ...... go to ftp://flag.blackenet.net/freebsd/ppp_script.sh and download the setup script file.
