Bonjour!

I have a couple of questions which unfortunately reflect that I am a 
complete Openbsd/unix newbie.
I have read the Faq and had a look through the archives, but my 
questions are just way too basic.
Please bear with me :-)   .

Thanks to the excellent install-doc I was able to install and compile 
the driver and binaries on my open bsd box.
Modem_run works (I can see the MODEM's lights switching on), but ppp 
-background adsl returns
"using interface tun1
child failed (errdead)"

dmesg recognises the modem ok, and I adapted the sample ppp.conf file to 
my host (xtra.co.nz), I have my nameservers adress, so that's cool.

Ok, tun1 is my interface, meaning that I probably will have to configure 
a /etc/hostname.tun1 file, which is where my problem starts: As I will 
be using a dynamic IP adress, I will not be able to assign a adress, as 
it will be configured py ppp.

Which brings me to the next point:
This openbsd box is supposed to be the gateway for my other compi's so 
I'm not going to be able to add a adress to /etc/mygate.

With other words: so far I have either a ipadress nor a gateway, and of 
course no connection.
  what to do? I  am sure I have missed plenty of things...

Thanks guys,

Dirk
