Hi,

I'm trying to build my own one-floppy firewall with PPP support (NetBSD
1.5/i386).

Based on the files in '/usr/src/distrib/*' I'm trying to modify some of
the boot-floppies to include pppd (modifying the ramdiskbin.conf and
list files).

My strategy so far has been to include one file/program at a time and
then examine what is missing next.

I have copied a set of PPP configuration files (/etc/ppp/...) that I
known are working correctly. So far, the
pppd starts without problems until these messages appear:

pppd[17]: Starting link
pppd[17]: Failed to open  /dev/tty00: Device not configured
pppd[17]: Failed to open  /dev/tty00: Device not configured

the devices /dev/tty0* are present.

What am I missing?

Regards

Palle
