Well if mgetty's working right, you should see something like: dialout ttyS0 /usr/sbin/pppd f Tue Sep 16 23:13 - 23:20 (00:07) in the output of `last -20' if you dialout with the same modem (ttyS0/COM1 in this case) you will have users connecting on. Does this happen? > I think that mgetyy answer....but it return me an "TIO" error....what's > that error? I haven't come across that one - what does the error message say? What do you get in /var/log/mgetty/mg_ttyS0.log? You should see something like: 09/18 19:01:47 yS0 mgetty: experimental test release 1.1.2-Feb20 09/18 19:24:41 ##### data dev=ttyS0, pid=15577, caller=none, conn='14400/V42BIS', name='', cmd='/usr/sbin/pppd', user='/AutoPPP/' if it's working right (and you have the same amount of logging as me). /var/log/ppp.log should then be something like: Sep 18 19:24:41 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0 Sep 18 19:24:41 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: Using interface ppp1 Sep 18 19:24:41 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: Connect: ppp1 <--> /dev/ttyS0 Sep 18 19:24:44 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: user carey logged in Sep 18 19:24:44 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: local IP address 192.168.17.35 Sep 18 19:24:44 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: remote IP address 192.168.17.160 Sep 18 19:24:44 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: found interface eth0 for proxy arp > When an user intent log in, the modem answer but then hang and > disconnect...thus nobody can login. Can they get a shell login by just dialing the number from minicom (or hyperterminal on Win95)? Also check /var/log/auth.log to see if there are problems with passwords or something. -- Carey Evans <*> http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/c.evans/ kernel: Warning: possible SYN flooding.
