Hello I have been learning and running two freebsd boxes in Buffalo and Niagara Falls for dialup ppp access to the internet. I also use one BSDI box. The one in the falls is giving me alot more problem and mainly it is mgetty or the way I have it configured. The problem is if someone drops carrier. Mgetty resetts the modem but it doesn't kill the dialup scriptthat they used to log on with. I have not been able to setup pap so I use pppd in the script started by the user dialing into the system. Here are some of the files for my system I will show you a log file that I think that problem lies with DCD. The &C1 sets the modem to watch for carrier between the two modems and if dropped then mgetty resetts the modem and it does that but not the process it is running so no one else can log in on that modem and when it is the first one in the hunt group the system is virtual shutdown. The info file on mgetty said it could be the cables are too long or because we are using a flat cable. Is this why or possible, that the log shows the warning about DCD being low. The other files I'm including in this file are my ttys and my ppp.conf that I would like to get to work with pap. I tried using just getty but could not even get it to give me a login in prompt just garabage characters and I tried all sorts of things before going to mgetty. Please help me, with any infomation or where I could go for more help. David G.
