looking for corispondance to help get freeBSD running ppp accross
ricochet wireless modem.

i would prefer to use pppd as metricom doesn't car if the connection is
up and running full time but will settle for
user ppp.

i have followed the docs for user ppp but they don't cover
this sort of configuration that i can find.

anyone out there running ppp over wireless modems please help

thanks for your time in advance
