My Unix manual talks about lpadmin but it does not exist anywhere on my freebsd system. I am also having trouble with PPP. I can dial and connect to my ISP at 38400; but as soon as a packet arrives, I'm kicked out and the connection is terminated before I have a chance to login. I've noticed that some standard Unix utilities are not included with freebsd. Aside from that, I got dual boot to work between Win95 and FreeBSD. Also, I'm looking for good reference books on FreeBSD.
