I have just installed bsdi 3.0 on my home machine, and am finding
getting dialout ppp running very non-trivial. I spoke with someone at
support and they told me to get the 3.0 patches, and there's something
in there supposedly to make it much easier. Problem is, I don't know
how to get them to my machine from the ftp site. mount_msdos seems to
be broken or else I'd just download them to my dos drive. I don't
seem to have rz, so I can't even zmodem the things.
Surely there must be a less miserable way to go about this. Could
someone lend me a hand?
