Hi there,

 I've set up ppp dial-in server in a FreeBSD-2.2.6 box, with
mgetty+sendfax(configured with -DAUTO_PPP) in ports collection.
There are two problems:

the /usr/ports/comms/mgetty+sendfax/pkg/INSTALL, line 74,

print F "\n      FAX  FROM:  **not configured** $def{fax-id}     TO:
@T@    PAG
E: @P@ OF @M@ \n";

should be modified as

print F "\n      FAX  FROM:  **not configured** $def{fax-id}     TO:
\@T@    PAG
E: \@P@ OF \@M@ \n";

or make install fails.


and the label 'papttyd0' in ppp.conf should be modified to 'papcuaa1'
or it'll tell you

Apr 22 17:38:31 aquarius ppp[254]: tun0: Warning: Destination system
(null) not
found in conf file.


I have 'cuaa1   "/usr/local/sbin/mgetty -s 57600" dialup on' definition
in
/etc/ttys now, and it's working now. But I have no any idea what will
happen
if I have cuaa2,3,4,5,6,7,8 in the future.

Further question, if I set dialin and dialout service at same host, you
know,
they both have

delete all
add 0 0 HISADDR

route commands in /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup. How can I solve the routing
problem.
I mean, if I connect to Internet with dialout, then the dialin service
will delete
the 'route default' and create another 'route default', that makes the
connection
to Internet no function at all.

Any help would be appreciated,

Jonah
