Hi, My experience with ppp on freebsd has been fairly limited, as I tried to make PPPoE work, and failed to do that because of funky netgraph problems, see:
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-...@lists.debian.org/msg05960.html and: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-...@lists.debian.org/msg05962.html In short: netgraph seems broken for me on kFreeBSD, but it may only be me. Also keep in mind that the 'ppp' we're talking about is probably a *very* different beast than the "linux-side" 'ppp' that SynCE expects. So this could just *not work* even if we get "freebsd-ppp" to work at all. So I am not sure what opinion you are seeking for me, but I think it's safe to say that 'ppp' is not quite available right now in kFreeBSD. I have heard reports of people making it work with plain old modems (ie. not PPPoE/netgraph) so it may be possible to use it, but I haven't experienced that myself. A. PS: those interested in porting freebsd-ppp (I have mostly given up now due to time constraints) are free to start from the work done in the ITP here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=574789 -- Man really attains the state of complete humanity when he produces, without being forced by physical need to sell himself as a commodity. - Ernesto "Che" Guevara
