It's not really too far off-topic.  Many of us are system 
integrators, too.  

I've had mixed results dialing in to Linux, and establishing a ppp 
connection.  I use the following pppd options:

# /etc/ppp/options.ppp0
modem
crtscts
38400
#defaultroute
asyncmap 0
lock
192.168.1.14:192.168.1.16
proxyarp
passive

called from a script like the following:

#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd file /etc/ppp/options.ppp0

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  We'd both appreciate any 
words of wisdom.  (DRanch:  does the Trinity doc cover this?  I've 
downloaded the new one, but not had a chance to check out this 
topic.)
