It's up to you to connect >the two, so there should be no concept of 'ppp0 using only cuaa0' In the install program, there are two ppp0 options. One says that it will use cuaa0 and one says it will use cuaa1. Its just one of the preset options in the installation process. I think its supposed to connect the interface with the device on its own. >Can you use your modem with cu, tip or kermit ? I haven't tried, but I'm not sure which ones are available to me at this stage of the installation process. Anyway, I just decided to install Release 2.1 which worked just fine, so I probably wont mess around with the June Snapshot anymore. -- +------------------------------------------+ | Stephen Brandi brandi@eden.rutgers.edu | | http://remus.rutgers.edu/~brandi | +------------------------------------------+
