dear sir, I try to connection two computers which have FreeBSD installed in through null-modem cable using PPP connection. In the freebsd handbook, I can not find the related information which talk about PPP connection on null modem cable. Can you tell me why? or It happens because i didn't find the right place in the handbook. I use the ppp.conf file in server and client side which is provided on the website ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/share/examples/ppp/ppp.conf.sample # Example to connect using a null-modem cable: the command I used is: ppp -background direct-server but I got an error message in the log file which is: can not find CD. I think CD means carrier detect. why it happens? thanks a lot for your help. Rui http://messenger.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo! Messenger - A great way to communicate long-distance for FREE!
