Sure, it does read it from /usr/local/etc. I can see that from the consequeces of changing it there. But as I stated in a previous message it doesn't work. I'm sure it has something to do with the setup of ppp on FreeBSD. With respectively without the existence of /etc/ppp/ppp.conf the log says: ppp[67205]: Warning: Label /etc/ppp/options.pptp rejected -direct connection: Configuration label not found and ppp[67267]: Warning: Label /etc/ppp/options.pptp rejected -direct connection: /etc/ppp/ppp.conf : File not found I'm a bit lost here. I might have to ask some FreeBSD experts. Naturally, I have been googling on the issue, but haven't yet seen any usefull hints. Thanks for the help anyway!
