try reading teh ppp pedantic primer, or teh man page by 
brian@awfulhak .. (sorry, brian) like that. thier are two ways 
to get ppp to act as a server and brain dealts in detail with 
both.

teh frist one uses getty teh other uses mgetty+sendfax. the 
firs one is just a few tables modified abd a couple of gotachs 
in teh modem taken care off (e1 and v1, but read teh man page).

using mgetty+sendfax package is far mor complicated but give 
you a host ove very flrxible options .. if you want to setup a 
ras type device, tehn mgetty+sendfax would be a good place to 
start (for a pstn style permanent and dialup modem ras setup, 
i'm not sure it it will handle teh isdn specific issues).

in clossing, i've use teh simple getty mode woth goodeffect, 
and even tried the mgetty+sendfax package but got bowled over 
by my dsylexia and several other issues that cause teh weird 
spelling that you will no doubt second guess at. i would 
apreciate not being remindered i need a spellinv checker, most 
of these thngs are wriotten by people who don;t understand how 
dsylexia works.

by the way, one more item teh mailing list freebsd-isp has teh 
kind of people that use this kind of stuff and so shoudl be 
able to help you if you need further help in this matter.

regards

jonathan, not so pretending to be a broccolli today.
