I'm going to try rp-pppoe from ports, since on Linux it's actually quite helpful in full debug, but I'm surprised at how little BSD's ppp tells me when logging is turned right up. Any other suggestions? Thanks, Mike -- Michael P. Soulier "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...
