Hi all, I'm hoping to use a freebsd box that has a permanent connection to the net as a ppp server for one line until my terminal server arrives next month. When I read the man ppp page, it said that various things were required to be done and then launches into a section on timeouts etc. Where is this all supposed to go? Is it supposed to go in /usr/local/bin/ppplogin? Do I have to customise all the files in the ppp directory? I'm planning on using a static address for the dialing in machine and naturally the server has a static address. Does the server need to run gated for the dialin machine to have access to the net? I know that this has no doubt been answered before but I cannot find the answer amongst all the using freebsd to connect to machine x. Regards, Hugh.
