I'm using mgetty on another machine for incoming fax service and login users but don't want to go through another hassle. Kernel ppp and pppd as a server should work and it works for several users but not all - that's the problem. And I'm wondering whether it's a modem/tty line discipline problem after all. So my question aims on that rc.serial /comcontrol issue. I believe comcontrol were gone in 2.x and so is rc.serial but I'm not sure how to setup my modem line discipline. Especially these crtscts and dtr (drainwait etc.) issues may be important in that context. > > The handbook, the documentation coming with mgetty and a bit of > experimentation and you should be ok to accept incoming connection > using PPP. > > > TfH > > > ____________________________ Séparateur Réponse ______________________________ __ > Objet : rc.serial ? > Auteur : kuku@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE > Date : 15/04/98 13:00 > > > > While still fighting with my pppd problems (I can now login from > linux while another can't with his linux machine) I'm wondering > whether the rc.serial mimicry is still necessary to set up the modem > line correctly. > > The problem is that the modem prematurely hangs up during link > setup so that the connection gets terminated abruptly by a cause > I havn't yet figured out. > > I'm using crtscts in the pppd script and I wonder if I have to set up > the line discipline accordingly through rc.serial or is > rc.serial gone in 2.2.5-R?
