hello,
I am trying to get a freebsd box setup as a dialin server
to replace linux box, having a problem with ppp files..
I have compiled mgetty port for v2.2.7 with -DAUTO_PPP option,
added line to /etc/ttys file:
cuaa1 "/usr/local/sbin/mgetty -s 57600" dialup on
configured /usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.conf with uncommented
/AutoPPP/- a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login debug
when i set up ppp.conf with the recommended (ppp.conf.sample)
file for server side pap with passwd, and setup ppp.secret
pap-secret files,and dialin from an external  mac box i get:
casey10 pppd[691]: Connect:ppp0 <-->/dev/cuaa1
casey10 pppd[691]: Could not determine remote IP address
casey10 pppd[691]: Could not determine remote IP address
casey10 pppd[691]: Connection terminated, connected for 1 minutes
from a linux box..similar reponse `Peer is not authorized to use remote
address xxx.yyy,ggg.bbb`
this appears to be a set ifaddr problem in ppp.conf?
Thanks in advance for any assistance, i notice no disscusion of an
/etc/ppp/options and /etc/ppp/options.cuaa1 file as there would be in
linux, how is each modem identified with an ip address?
