Thanks for your answer. Yes I think in the configuration is somewhere
a mistake, but where? Now I did my "ed0" to "192.168.168.1" and my
"tun0" to "192.168.168.2" and the error never comes. But I cannot dial
out, only manual. I think in the routes is something wrong. But what?

I looked at the manuals, but there is nowhere (I didn't found them) an
sample what to do from nothing (only installed fbsd) to get connected
(over user ppp with dialout) with all steps. I mean the exactly steps
to go on write. For a beginner this is not quite good.  :-(
