Need to setup dialup server to accept dial up connection using pppd
 

Hi,

I'm using fedora core-8.
I need to setup dialup server to accept dial up connection.
Dial up server shoudl also allocate ip address to client (trying to connect using modem)
If some one knows how to do this, please let me know.

I'm trying to achieve peer to peer communication between two computers connected using modem on both side over PSTN line.

Thanks and advance.

James.

PPP and SLIP are covered, as well as setserial and stty commands.
And PAP & CHAP authentication protocols.

Also search on net for "Linux Dial-up Server" for many web pages with full instructions.

Thanks for links.

Is there any way I can get PAP authentication without putting password in /etc/ppp/pap-secrete ?
