Hi,

	I'm pretty new to bsd and unix in general.  I would like to be able to
configure my network and connect to my isp from within bsd instead of having to
use Winsock under windows.  My isp uses PPP with dynamic IP assignment.  I
would appreciate any help or pointers to literature/web sites that could help
me.  TIA,  Tom
