Hi Andreas,
I'm finally coming through with my promise...
How to setup ppp server on linux
================================
1. configure ppp demon
-------------------
Make a file called /etc/ppp/options with the following:
asyncmap 0
netmask 255.255.255.0
proxyarp
lock
crtscts
modem
then create a file for each serial port called /etc/ppp/options.ttyXX
where XX is the serial port with:
localaddress:remoteaddress
for example:
192.168.0.52:192.168.0.53
Setting up ppp access via the shell (the easy method)
====================================================
as root do:
chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppd
Setting up Miami(Dx) to use the above
=====================================
Start MiamiInit
Choose your connection type and driver
Set "IP address" to dynamic
Set "protocol" to PPP
Set login name and password to the username and password of the user
on the linux machine you want to login as.
Check "use dialog box"
Press continue
You should now get the linux login prompt.
Press the "send login id"
when you get the password prompt, press "send password"
when you get a command prompt, enter "exec /usr/sbin/pppd -detach"
It should now automatically negotiate with the ppp server and
configure your connection. If not then press "online" and it should
do it.
Finish the configuration process as normal and save your config.
If you are using MiamiDx then import the config in the normal way.
Thats it. It should work now!
Regards,
Soyeb
