Combs) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: PPP setup question on FreeBSD Date: 19 Oct 1993 12:26:09 GMT Organization: GE Drive Systems, Salem, VA Lines: 22 Distribution: world Message-ID: <2a0md1$duf@alva.ge.com> Reply-To: steve@@salem.ge.com NNTP-Posting-Host: 3.29.5.200 Does anyone have any documentation on how to setup PPP for FreeBSD?? I'm trying to connect to my Sun at work and I've got dp-2.3 running on the Sun but can't seem to figure out how to make the PPP on FreeBSD (FreeBSD-1.0-EPSILON, upgraded from FreeBSD-1.0-GAMMA) work? Also, How in the $@&%! do you get the whatis.db to build??? I've tried the Makefile in '/usr/src/share/man' doing a 'make makedb' and it just sits there and does nothing (over 24hours and nothing gets done). --- ======================================================================= Stephen F.
