You shouldn't need those because mgetty already answers the phone and runs pppd for
you. I have an older setup (2.0.27) that looks like this:
/etc/inittab:
S1:234:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/mgetty -x 0 -s 115200 -p "\I\r\n\r\nlogin: " cua2
:192.168.100.31
/usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config:
/AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd passive -detach proxyarp login debug
I like these in my /etc/ppp/options as well:
ms-dns x.x.x.x
ms-wins x.x.x.x
My use of cua rather than ttyS is probably deprecated, but it wouldn't share nicely
with my outgoing pppd otherwise <shrug>. I am out of town and I really like this baby
because I can fax/ppp/shell to the same number/account.
I use proxyarp for dial-ins because it is easier when a single machine wants access to
a LAN. The 192.168.100.31 is an IP that will be assigned to the caller.. it exists on
one of my eth devices as well, hence, the proxyarp.
HTH.
