Lines: 27 Message-ID: <534pjh$21e@pandora.vision.net.au> NNTP-Posting-Host: porta09.vision.net.au X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 Help!!!! As part of a project for school, I have set up a FreeBSD 2.1.5 box. We would like to set up dialin access using PPP, (the computer has full time access to the net through the LAN. So far I have been able to set up SLIP support, but no luck with PPP. Every time I try to run PPPD I get the message " Soory - PPP not available on this system." The system was setup with a basic User file set. (No Kernel source etc.) Question - do I need to install something else to get PPPD to run? I have followed the examples in the online handbook to no avail so far. As far as I can tell dial out PPP works OK. I await your knowledgeable replies.... With thanks, Mark. ============================= Mark van Loon EMail: mvanloon@vision.net.au =============================
