This is probably a no-brainer for all of you BSD gurus out
there, but trying to get my modem working is giving me a real pain!
I have a Zoom 14.4 that I want to connect to my FreeBSD box as 
a dialin connection for slip and/or regular login.  The FAQ 
seems to cover setting up for slip, but I was hoping that 
someone could point be towards specific information regarding 
modem setup (i.e. ttys, gettytab and other config entrys)
for just a normal login.  Later on, I would like to implement 
an auto call-back after login (any info on this would also be
appreciated), but first things first.  Thanks in advance.
