Hi , I am trying to configure a PPP server, I have been checking two methods the infinite loop and with an additional package the mgetty. Now I'm using the mgetty and I want to configure the AUTO_PPP, but the mgetty's documentation says that I have to compile mgetty with -DAUTO-PPP, but I dont know where to compile it, I can't find the makefile for mgetty. I have mgetty in rpm format. I'd appreciated it very much for any help you can bring. bye ___________________________________________________________________ Consigue tu e-mail gratuito OLE.COM Haz click en "http://www.olemail.com"
Hello , There;s a challenging problem (as to me) with mgetty. It works alright with AUTO_PPP and callback works either. But I want my users ONLY to use callback with simple login (via scenario in WIN95/98). So I want mgetty to check line for the call, check- whether it is callback user(login.config), callback to user, connect, and take over control to generic /bin/login,that is NOT CONTROLLED by mgetty .( I have setup '/usr/sbin/pppd' for this user in /etc/passwd as login shell). The problem is , when I do this way - mgetty callbacks to me , and after the connect , when I enter the same user name, it ,again, uses login.config...and goes on hangup and callback to me... and so on...endless. ( Of course , AUTO_PPP is disabled. ) With AUTO_PPP ,mgetty takes over control to AUTO_PPP feature, and I can connect easily. But this way, it is not necessarily using callback at all, one can just call and connect , and I don't want this situation. Did anyone have an experience with it? I'd appreciated it very much bye - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
