I am just starting out with FreeBSD and I can't seem to get ppp to
work properly.
I have read the handbook and the FAQ, and I still can't get the thing
to work.
I can dial into my ISP (BTW, I have no problem when in Win95) and
start a PPP session, but I can't reach out. I get route errors.
I also have a NE2000 compatible card in my system, but I am not
working on a LAN yet. (I'll try that next)
My info:
DNS address: 205.216.77.2
Gateway addr: 205.216.77.2
ISP name: snowhill.com
ISP netmask: 255.255.255.0
ISP uses dynamic addressing
Here a my relevant files:

I don't really have my own domain; is this legal?

I greatly appreciate the effort of anyone who has made it this far

Thanks in advance
