The project that I'm working on needs the ability to establish a
demand dialed ppp connection and accept incoming calls (ppp also)
on the same modem. Has anybody done this ?
Currently, I have both of these working indepedently, using mgetty
to handle the incoming call. The abililty to do both of these together
on the same port will require some code changes I think.
The outgoing case is pretty straightforward: hack pppd to send a
signal to mgetty upon determining that mgetty holds the port lock.
Similarly hack mgetty to catch the signal and give up the lock.
Here is the real question: how to handle incoming calls ?
Somehow pass the incoming call to the running instance of pppd ?
Or kill that one off an start a new one like normal ?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom
