Date: Fri, 23 Aug 1996 18:07:29 -0500 Organization: Sprynet News Service Lines: 17 Message-ID: <321E398A.5E7B@sprynet.com> Reply-To: dblizzar@sprynet.com NNTP-Posting-Host: ad11-008.compuserve.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0b7 (Macintosh; I; PPC) I have been using freebsd 2.0.5 to connect to my ISP via dial out with no problem but now I need to use the machine to receive incoming PPP connections from other machines. So here are some questions: - Should I use pppiij or pppd? - I have tried pppiij but cannot connect via the diagnostic port - I understand the modem setup no problem but what is the sequence that freebsd uses to handle the incoming call? - The handbook only mentions incoming calls with pppd so is that the answer to my question? -- de Dave Blizzard VE3 SVL ----------------
