Hi folks!
Since some days I'm proud owner of a Psion Revo. I just installed Win9x on
a small Harddisk just to install the Webbrowser and an FTP-Client on the
Psion. With Win the direct serial connection works (I can even browse the
web through a proxy :-|). The Psion is set to 8 Databits, no parity, 1
Stopbit. When I try to login to FreeBSD I just see _very_ weird symbols in
the log-window until the connection breaks.
Has anyone out there tried to set up direct ppp with a Psion Revo (I think
this is not very different on a Palm or with any direct serial
connection)? Which files do I have to edit? Should I use getty or mgetty?
How would my mgetty.conf have to look like? Here are the changes to the
related files I made:
/etc/ttys:
ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty psion" dialup on secure
ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty psion" dialup on secure
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf:
psion:
set ifaddr 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.101 255.255.255.0
set device /dev/cuaa0
set speed 57600
enable passwdauth
allow users mattias
enable pap
enable lqr
/usr/local/bin/ppplogin:
#! /bin/sh
exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct psion
/etc/gettytab:
psion:\
:pp=/usr/local/bin/ppplogin:\
:np:sp#57600:
Thank you!
Mattias
