I installed FreeBSD on a pc and wanted to set up ppp dial to my provider. It didn't work. So I tested the port with cu. If I type in "cu -l cuaa0" I get the message "permission denied" and "line in use". I wondered then there is nothing in use. What's the problem? In "/etc/ttys" there are all serial lines "off". In "/etc/uucp/ports" I have "port 0" and "port 1" for "/dev/cuaa0" and "/dev/cuaa1". That's enaugh, or? Please give me a chance and help me. Thanks. Sigi sigi@remsmurr.de
