Hi. I'm trying to get my dip connection to the university working again
(after having upgraded from 2.2.7->3.1). After a frustrating Sunday
spent trying to get this working (modem works, dials in, log's in,
get's IP numbers but I can't ping anything apart from the machine
I dialled into), I have two questions:

1) Can anybody confirm that the dip port works on FreeBSD 3.1?

2) What does "return code 256" from ifconfig mean? Most importantly,
is it an error message?

Thanks,
Lawrence.
