I'm about to set up a FreeBSD 1.1R system (to be 1.1.5 when its released)
to dial up and connect to an internet provider and run PPP. I was wondering
if anyone would be willing to share any scripts/setup info that they'd like
to share with me. I've done network configs, but never serially, so I want
to avoid any potential pitfalls. 

I would like to use a kermit script to dial/attach, but using just about
anything I can get my hands on will suffice.

thanks in advance. If anyone else is interested in the answers, mail me,
and I'll try to consolidate responses.

I'd also like replies by mail whenever possible, so I don't miss anything.
  Thanks, Brian
