To reproduce it do the following Boot without any network configuration (e.g. single user) enter the commands: ifconfig ppp0 inet 200.200.21.21 200.200.21.30 netmask 0xffffff00 route add default 200.200.21.1 and then finger @200.200.2.1 (or any other command trying to get out of the router) ----- The IP addresses ofcourse are NOT real and they only serve as an example. Any ideas what is causing the problems and what the cure is? As far as I can tell it was also present in the previous SNAP as well as the latest one (FreeBSD 2.0.950412-SNAP).
