RE: PPP takes the system over :(
Based on the very little info you posted, here is the same level of reply. You have your system configured incorrectly. Now is that reply useful? About as useful as your question is. Nobody here has ESP so they can not remotely read your mind or the contents or your system's config files. When asking for help it's your responsibility to provide enough info for readers of your post to actually help you. Post full contents of the following config files to get meaningful help. Rc.conf, dmesg.boot, ppp.conf, ppp.log, firewall rules, output from ps ax command while user ppp is running. If you are trying to use kernel ppp, change to user ppp as it's a whole lot easier to debug. Is this an new clean install from cdrom? Have you used FBSD before? Besides just saying you have an external USR modem how about model number and speed(IE 33.6, 56K or what) Details man details. The more details you provide the more helpful the reply will be. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of -=Nihr0M=- Sent: Saturday, May 22, 2004 6:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: PPP takes the system over :( Hello, I have a 5.2.1-Release.
