I'm reposting because the 'Reply-To:' address was wrong on my previous post (I screwed

Does anyone have any documentation on how to setup PPP for FreeBSD?? I'm trying
to connect to my Sun at work and I've got dp-2.3 running on the Sun but can't seem
to figure out how to make the PPP on FreeBSD (FreeBSD-1.0-EPSILON, upgraded from
FreeBSD-1.0-GAMMA) work?
Also, How in the $@&%! do you get the whatis.db to build??? I've tried the
Makefile in '/usr/src/share/man' doing a 'make makedb' and it just sits there
and does nothing (over 24hours and nothing gets done).
