I sent a message to the list yesterday about an error message I got when trying to use PicoBSD to dialup to my ISP. I realized when I wrote the message I probably didn't provide enough information. So, here we go again.

Then I execute the dialup script it goes all the way to the end and asks me if I would like to test the connection. After I select yes, I get the following error:

Working in background mode Using interface: tun0 Child Failed (errdead).

I also get this same error message when I invoke the command 'ppp -disconnect dialup'. I've checked my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file, and it looks fine. I'm trying to access my modem at /dev/cuaa2. I read in the supported hardware file that COM3 and COM4 are disabled by default, and that they need to be enabled in UserConfig. I think that may be my problem, but I can't seem to find UserConfig.

Any advice you can give me would be appreciated.
