Hi,

OK - is pppd running ??

Also - I hate having to test it like that - but that is the only way it
can be done now!!

I have no clue on how to get it to run from mgetty and what the error
message is associated with the "remote system is required to
authenticate" ??

OK - the 192.168.1.74 - is the internal ip address that is available to be
given to the client!!  It is not being assigned it is set manually in
dial-up networking on the client side!!

The server is on the 192.168.1. network - here is the options.server file:

-detach
asyncmap 0
modem
crtscts
lock
proxyarp
ms-dns xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
ms-dns yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

the options file is the same!!

The options.ttyS0 is:
192.168.1.71:192.168.1.74

the first is the internal IP of the server - the second is the IP assigned
to the client???

OK - thats all???

Thanks

Tonino
