Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:34704 Hello. I was able to install Free BSD 2.1.6 via ftp with everything working, but I would like to add packages but sysinstall's media menu doesn't allow me to setup the ppp connection. I've been able to get the 'tip' command to work, but I can't figure out how to start a ppp connection. Does anybody have any suggestions? Also, when I disconnect from my ISP while using the TIP command, my computer sits there and doesn't respond to any commands. Again, any suggestions? Thanks, Patrick
