Hi there,
I have a cyclone board (16 port). I have setup /etc/inittab to run
mgetty-1.1.22-1.6.x on the ports (on RedHat 6.2 box). I can confirm that
the system opens and listens on the ports and accepts incoming calls.
However there are two issues:
1) Apparently mgetty/pppd doesn't check /etc/passwd file. I have to put
login/password combo into /etc/ppp/pap-secrets. Anyone knows why?
2) The server is on 192.168.1.60. Incoming calls get their IP from
/etc/ppp/options.ttyCx which is 192.168.1.200 (to 215). After the remote
machine gets its IP, and tries to communicate back to the server, the
server drops the connection. Any ideas? Corresponding portion of
/var/log/messages is enclosed.
Thanks,
Hossein
