Thanks, that works. But I got another error: when I start ppp (as root), I got this messages: ================================================================ # /sbin/ppp -auto ondemand Working in auto mode Using interface: tun0 Error: rt_Update: ioctl(SIOCSIFDSTADDR): 0.0.0.0: no such device Error: rt_Update: ioctl(SIOCSIFNETMASK): 0.0.0.0: no such device ================================================================ I use the ppp.conf.sample as this (paste in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf and update login, password and DNS). I've try with other labels than 'ondemand' and with other devices (original /dev/cuaa1 -> /dev/ttyS0, /dev/tty00, /dev/tty01) but I always got the same errors. I use a single machine, with a simple modem. On Linux, I have my modem on /dev/ttyS0. So, can I connect my GNU/Hurd box to the net with an ISP ? Is there a simple way to test if my modem is working ? Thanks for any help, regards, PS1: Like I don't find docs on this subjet (only messages), I'll very happy to make one or include one in a FAQ. (But I have to understand what to do) PS2: I got some other errors with ppp when it runs with a normal user. But It's less important, it's just permissions problems. PS3: Thanks for your work, the GNU/Hurd is very amazing! -- Phil Brochard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://hocwp.free.fr
