Is this using modems? Why =>don't you use getty to handle this? I can be configured to =>auto-detect ppp connections and start pppd for you. Can someone point me to more info on setting up getty so it will handle ppp connections? I tried to just change the ttys line back to getty, but it didn't recognize the ppp login as such (netscape reported an error negotiating login). Thanks muchly... Lee
