Re: [plug] help on mgetty on rh7.2 dial-in server

[Oliver A. Rojo]

Hi arvin,

try to include your password and remote ip addresses on your /etc/ppp/pap-secrets config. Something like:

Secrets for authentication using PAP
# client server secret IP addresses
gracie * password1 192.168.1.200
grace2 * password2 192.168.1.200


and also try adding a line like:
+pap

on your /etc/ppp/options config...

this allows only users gracie and grace2 to dialin the server.

ian,

you can use internal modems as long as your system can detect it. But as for
me, im still having a hard time finding drivers for my internal modem at
home. External modems are much easier to configure. And for easy setup and
monitoring, i will say it is much better to use externals.

about the number of modems, that depends on your serial card. For our box,
we use 16 port card (equinox) but i only use it for up to 8 modems.

Gracie,

Can I use internal modems? and/or USB modems for dial-in? BTW whats the
maximum number of modems can you put on a dial-in server?

Thanks,

Ian Ponce

hi guys,
          i have some inquiry with mgetty but first i will show you

my

configurations!
1.)/etc/ppp/options
                       - asyncmap 0
                       -netmask 255.255.255.0
                       -proxyarp
                       -lock
                       -crtscts
                       -modem
                       -login
2.)/etc/ppp/options.ttyS0
      -192.168.1.100:192.168.1.200
3.)/etc/ppp/options.ttyS1
      -193.168.1.100:193.168.1.200
4.)/etc/ppp/pap-secrets
client        server     secret
 test             *            test
5.)/etc/mgetty-sendfax/login.config
  -/AutoPPP/ -      -/usr/sbin/pppd
This are my clarification and my current problem:
1.) Is there any problem with my sample configurations?
2.) Although this is already a working configuration. and now my big
problem is why is it that even when i used a wrong login id and

password

which is non existent in my pap-secrets profiles, they can  still

login.

why this happen, is it a bug from mgetty? i'm using an rpm
mgetty-1.1.26-6
hope you can help me and sorry for this long message...
