Well, I installed NetBSD for the first time on my Performa 550, and am 
enjoying the new experience.  I wanted to connect to the Internet through 
my ISP, AT&T WorldNet service.  I did a little bit research, tried some 
scripts on macbsd/netbsd's web pages, but to no avail.

Then, I noticed these scripts said words like, "PAP", etc.  Hmm.  I 
checked WorldNet's help pages and saw they have a dialer for FreeBSD but 
none for NetBSD - and AT&T's login is CHAP (Challenge Authentication 
Protocol).  Anyone know how to do this on NetBSD?  I.E. Login and get PPP 
working.

Thanks!
