Hi,

I apologize in advance if this question is answered somewhere that I haven't
looked, but after spending the afternoon surfing the WEB, I can't find it.

I am trying to connect my home system running FreeBSD to our office's ppp
server.  Our office's server is from Sonic and does not have a 'text'
interface layer.  I cannot figure our how to connect without going through
the 'chat' layer.  It seems that pppd always expects some form of text
username/password string to be sent from the remote host.

Any insights on how to get around this limitation would be greatly
appreciated.  Also, if this question has been answered somewhere else, a
pointer to the documentation would suffice.

Thanks for your time and efforts,

Best regards,

Dave
