O'Callaghan!  And the getty which supports ppp is standard in 2.2.5 and 
above.  mgetty is nice in that if the machine is in a stupid state DTR 
may still be high but mgetty won't answer the phone.  mgetty also 
convinces the modem to talk at the right speed, something that getty 
doesn't.  I use getty, but I'm seriously considering moving to mgetty.

My colleague is working on pppd with radius with a view to committing it 
to -current, and making a package for 2.2+
I'd like to get a hold of what you have so we can make our submission 
more comprehensive.

Thanks,
