I am attempting to establish a ppp connection between my palm and
my FreeBSD machine so I can sync to a machine on my local lan. I
followed the instructions at:

http://lists.pilot-link.org/pipermail/pilot-link-general/2003-February/000896.html

as I am not syncing locally I commented out this line in ppp.conf
bg "/usr/local/bin/pi-sync.sh"

when I initiate a sync usbd pops up a message that the palm is connected
on port2, but running px does not show a ppp process and the connection
fails. I am running 4.9R and have a Tungsten T3. has anybody gotten 
this to work? TIA! conf files follow below.

(ppp.conf):
### palm stuff
palm:
 set device /dev/ucom0
 set cd off
 set dial
 set speed 115200
 set timeout 300
 set redial 5 0
 set reconnect 3 5
 set ctsrts on
 set ifaddr 192.168.0.42 192.168.0.77
 enable dns
 add default HISADDR
 open
#bg "/usr/local/bin/pi-sync.sh"
#end palm

(usbd.conf):
