I think I have several things wrong, so I'm going to try to fix just one at a time, and work through all the crud serially. The first problem I have is connecting at the server end; immediately after the server puts it's login banner out, it disconnects towards me. I've taken a look at the hex, I'm sure of this, that my modem is giving me a CARRIER LOST message after I put out the starting lcp stuff, when the login process at the other end gets confused. I have the pp feature enabled in gettytab, like the ppp manpage says, and I have /usr/local/bin/ppplogin exactly as per form. Should the server end be getting confused, when putting out "login:", that it gets the ppp startup hdlc stuff instead? The getty manpage makes no reference at all to this, but the ppp man page does ... I've also taken a cursory look at the getty source itself, it has provisions to recognize ppp, although I'm not sure if I need to do anything more than just enable the pp feature in gettytab.
