Dial-in PPP FreeBSD 5.3 (was Re: m'gettying closer! (was Re: modem not responding to mgetty) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2005 08:35:15 -0000 a minor p.s. to my notes, I forgot this line for the mgetty login.conf: /AutoPPP/ - - /etc/ppp/ppp-pap-dialup which is crucial to making this work. Also, you may have to edit /etc/passwd manually to get it to accept a shell not listed in /etc/shells. Otherwise, I reinstalled 5.3 on a new drive today and the dialin seemed to work.... EXCEPT that I had changed my home network from 192.168.2.x to 192.168.1.x... which wasn't a problem until I dialed in, and suddenly there were TWO 192.168.1.1 machines. YUP, that stopped it from working right quick, and I spent about 2 hours trying to figure something out on the FreeBSD side, when all it was in reality was my local IP. TjL
