Thank You.

If all you want to do is log in, there's a far easier way: just put a getty on the serial port. To do this, modify /etc/inittab. Your current one probably includes an example; if not, I can post one.

To run PPP across it (if you want to get IP connectivity going), you'll do the above, then set up ppp to log in as a user and run "pppd" (you may wish to make a special user with pppd as their shell).
