need help with ppp

2006-10-03 Thread KHOO Guan_Chen

Sorry for using up bandwidth.

I cannot connect to my ISP with FreeBSD (6.0). The ISP is not using 
PAP/CHAP in my case, but apparently something very old. Using minicom 
I can see that

1. my modem is connected to /dev/cuad0
2. after i dailled the ISP, they put me through a login. password and 
a local phase ie.after atdtISP phone_nbr \r, I see:-

connect 115200
Login: my user_id \r
Password: my_password \r
Local
 I have tried to enter things like ppp, ~ppp cppp ppp after 
the (Local) in my chat_script
but  no go. In minicom, I see that they sometimes drop me into a 
shell to which I can only exit,


Could someone give me a few more hints or the correct string to enter? please.

Oh my ISP help is no use. They replied to my request with sorry we 
cannot help you (because)
We at Technical Helpdesk are trained to support Windows and Mac 
based platforms. Your kind understanding is greatly appreciated. ARRGH  !!


Thanks alot

what happened to /dev/cuaa0

2006-09-21 Thread KHOO Guan_Chen
I installed FreeBSD 6.0 on an old compaq 500 desktop a few weeks ago 
and am now interested in connecting to the internet with dial up 
modem.  But when I gave the command pppd (as root), I got the error 
unregnized option /dev/cuaa0. Sure enough I could not find 
/dev/cuaa(0,1). I could only find /dev/cuad(0,1) Changing to 
/dev/cuad0 in my options file was not help


Could some kind soul tell me what to do.

Thanks alot
