look at the following file for information and scripts you need to =
connect to your ISP:

It took me about 20 minutes to configure the files and connect to the =
net using ppp. Take care to notice that the 'ppp-chat' needs to be =
configured for your modem. I used just the factory defaults for mine =
and everything works just fine.

Well, I installed NetBSD for the first time on my Performa 550, and am=20
enjoying the new experience. I wanted to connect to the Internet =

my ISP, AT&T WorldNet service. I did a little bit research, tried some=20
scripts on macbsd/netbsd's web pages, but to no avail.
Then, I noticed these scripts said words like, "PAP", etc. Hmm. I=20
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=20
Protocol). Anyone know how to do this on NetBSD? I.E. Login and get =
PPP=20
working.
Thanks!
