[SLUG] pppd problems with mgetty
Hi All, I'm having problems with getting mgetty1.1.20 to connect a ppp connection. I've done the following i) Compiled with the line CFLAGS=-02 -Wall -pipe -DAUTO_PPP" in the Makefile to enable PPP. ii) Included the line "/AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd auth login +pap -chap /dev/ttyS1 crtscts proxyarp lock" in the login.config file iii) Run the command "mgetty -D -a /dev/ttyS1" In the log file I get the error "yS1 can't get group 'modem': No such file or directory" and mgetty sends the modem to /bin/login rather than pppd. Any ideas? cheers, Richard Pang -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
