	 Im looking for information on creating a ppp connection over a modem.
I admit that Im still somewhat new to BSD and dont know all of the details
about it's operation.  I have used `ppp` and I can dial in to my ISP using
the term function, and then I start slirp... but Im kind of lost from there.
Is there anyone out there who has gotten this to work, and would be willing to
give me some help, or point me to a good FAQ?  Let me know.  Thanks.
