Hello All!
I just finished setting up FreeBSD 2.1 on roughly 5 machines here.. I also put
Linux on one of them, figured I'd see what it was all about..
Anyway, I'd like to hang a few modems off of the machines.. I'd like to have
one modem for outgoing to my ISP (I'm going with an on-demand static IP address
PPP account) I'd like to have another for inbound PPP (So I can dial in from my
laptop and get out to the Internet) and I'd like to have one for dial-in to a
normal shell account. I thought this would cover me..
Now the question.. I've played around for a couple of hours and have been able
to dial out on a comm port, but that's about it..
Anyone have a script that handles any of this or any pointers to what I do
exactly to get this all set-up??
Thanks in advance..
John
