Winmodems are modems # especially manufactured for the Microsoft Windows market and do not have # dial controllers so they are inexpensive. The dial function is provided by # driver software which gets installed in to mswindows. A Winmodem driver has # been developed for Linux systems 4/2001 and was ported to FBSD around # 10/2001. It is not part of the FBSD port collection yet. To find the port # search the FBSD questions archives looking for subject = Lucent LT WinModem # # NOTE Any FBSD documentation that says that the physical modem has to have # it's default options profile set to, NO command echo ATE0 and NO results # string ATQ1 and saved to the physical modems onboard non-volatile memory # (NVRAM) or any references to using programs tip, kermit, mgetty, or minicom # to perform the dial function is obsolete and out dated as of FBSD 4.0. # # Setup Instructions. # 1. Recompile kernel and change pseudo-device tun 1 to tun 4 # GENERIC kernel defaults to 1 and you need 1 tun device for each com port # 2. Add gateway_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf so dialin connection can gain # access to internet. # 3. Since a private internal IP address numbering scheme is used for IP # addresses behind this FBSD box the -nat option must be included on the # ppp command that starts the ppp task to dial the ISP. # NAT = Network Address Translation. Changes your private internal IP # address to your public IP address that you get from your ISP for # outbound messages and does the reverse for inbound messages. # From the command line example ppp -background -nat dialisp # 4. Using root create file /etc/ppp/ppplogin # Create file ppplogin with following 2 statements # #! /bin/sh # exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct incoming # # incoming is the section label name in ppp.conf to be processed when # ppp is started by this script's exec command. # # This script will be launched by getty when it detects a ppp dialin # connection attempt. Program ppp belongs to group network, so you have to # change file ppplogin group to network and it's permissions to read/write # for the owner, read/execute for group, and none for everyone else. # chgrp network ppplogin # assign file ppplogin to group network # chmod 650 ppplogin # set permissions # 5. Change the default section of /etc/gettytab file for automatic ppp # recognition by specifying the pp capability. Add following to default # :pp=/etc/ppp/ppplogin: # 6. Edit /etc/ttys to enable a getty on the port where the dialin modem # is attached. com2 = ttyd1 find statement like this # ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.38400" dialup off secure # Change off to on to activate. Verify line speed is correct (std.38400) # This value is defined in /etc/gettytab. After saving edited results # issue kill -1 1 command to spawn getty. Use ps ax to show active tasks. # 7. cp /usr/share/examples/ppp/ppp.secret.sample /etc/ppp/ppp.secret # Edit /etc/ppp/ppp.secret file adding the ID and password for each user # that is authorized to login to this FBSD box using dialin modems. # 8. TESTING Issue command ppp -background -nat dialisp to test configuration # Use commands ps ax to see task list. ifconfig -a to see if tun is running # netstat -r to see routing. /var/log/ppp.log to view ppp log events # ps ax to get ppp -background task number & kill -1 number to terminate. # 9. Once you are done with testing, make functions permanent. # Dial ISP at FBSD bootup. Add following to /etc/rc.conf file # ppp_enable="YES" # ppp_mode="ddial" # ppp_profile="dialisp" # ppp_nat="YES" # ############################################################################# default: # The default section is processed ever time user ppp is started. # Ever thing set here applies to all the following section. set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command #use for testing #set log Phase tun #use to avoid excessive log sizes # If 115200 connection speed does not work (it should work with any modem newer # that 1998) step down to 57600 or 38400 or 19200 for legacy modems. set speed 57600 # connection speed set timeout 0 # no idle time out, will not disconnect disable pred1 deflate lqr # compression features & line quality reporting deny pred1 deflate lqr # compression features & line quality reporting dialisp: # This label is used in the ppp -background -nat dialisp startup # command for auto logon to ISP provider. # Ensure that "device" references the correct serial port # for your modem.
