This is not really related to wvdial. Machine(n) must be a ppp server. To do
that you must run mgetty by putting a line like this in inittab:
S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/mgetty ttyS0
assuming you using serial port 1. Then in /etc/ppp you need to configure the
options file and the pap-secrets file. In /etc/mgetty+sendfax you need to
configure the login.conf and mgetty.conf files.
Look at documentation for how to setup a ppp server to decide how these files
should be configured. I personally favor kppp as the ppp client put wvdial
should also work. Set up an dial acct foe each machine(n) and go for it.
Don't use telnet though , use ssh which is more secure.
