I have no 5mx right now, but these files are from my last attempt to make PPP from 5mx
to linux.
---------------
ls -l /dev/mobilephone (usually I use irda to communicate with 7110)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jun 14 06:04 /dev/mobilephone -> /dev/ircomm0
---------------
/etc/inittab (you'll have to modify login script on psion)
ir:5:respawn:/sbin/getty mobilephone 57600
---------------
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets (the same in chap-secrets. I made both world-readable as I did
not use ppp for anything but psion. Otherwise you'll have to restrict access somehow)
psion fekda-ppp ppp 192.168.10.2
---------------
/etc/ppp/peers/psion
auth
192.168.10.1:192.168.10.2
debug
ipcp-accept-remote
ktune
ms-dns 192.168.10.1
linkname psion
name fekda-ppp
remotename psion
--------------
/etc/ppp/.ppprc
call psion
--------------
/etc/hosts
...
# PPP
192.168.10.1 ppp-fekda
192.168.10.2 psion
-------------
/etc/passwd
...
ppp:x:507:507::/etc/ppp:/usr/sbin/pppd
-------------
Sorry, I don't remember neither IR modules I've loaded (ircomm is apparently needed),
nor login script at psion which I hack by myself.
I have also /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq for NATs to be able to make outside connections from
psion:
-----------------
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
/sbin/ipchains -M -S 7200 10 160
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.10.0/24 -j MASQ
-----------------
And named in cache mode on linux box was running.
Some of these files are probably redundant but at least I was able to make PPP
connections from 5MX to Inet, look html pages (psion browser is so slow) and use email
client as well.

Neither am I ;)
