It depends on whether you wish to give ppp connection through the serial
line or just dialin access. In any case both of them need a line like the
following in your /etc/inittab
# modem getty.
mo:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/mgetty -r -s 38400 /dev/ttyS0
You have to add another line for the other modem specifying the serial line
connected to. -r option will be useful if you would like to use it for both
dialin as well as dialout.
One of the PCQuest articles (at least four/five months ago) has talked about
making your machine ppp dialin server. I don't remember the month.
