I have a FreeBSD box that we use as a DNS machine. We would like to run this box as a PPP server also, providing dial-in users access with dynamic ip addresses. We are finding vast information on the topic of PPP, but most deal with PPP on a dial-OUT basis. We need to provide INbound service. We will be using Cyclades multi-port cards, as the drivers are built into the kernel. What I need is a sort of step-by-step cookbook recipe for how to get this to work. I realize that some of the steps and/or concepts may seem basic to some, but I have really gotten confused now. Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks in advance, Joe Buczakowski, The Genesis Companies
