Check your rc.conf you will see a reference to network interfaces and
that is where you can rid yourself of the error message. 

As far as your "iijppp" you say "AT". if you follow it with a 'return'
is there any difference. My iijppp does'nt echo bak either on the
first "AT" command but after 'return' and the first "OK" all is as
expected.

You need to

  cp -p /usr/src/etc/login.conf /etc

or create an /etc/login.conf from scratch (man 5 login.conf).
