linux modem server


Hello everyone i have a tricky question :

I created an apache server and it works perfectly in local network. I also installed an usb modem to the server.

now the question :

I want to dial my server via telephone line, and after a successful connection i want to access the page provided by apache server by typing in the ip adress of the server .
What should i setup on my server ?
( the apache server works well on my local LAN and if i type ex. 10.0.0.1 i get the requested page on the LAN client browser ).


Thx...

By USB Modem do you mean a 56k modem, or a cable modem that connects by USB?

1/ Get the usb modem working. Start by getting it to dial out.
2/ Set up the modem to answer the phone and provide an IP connection.
3/ Once working, dialin. Start your browser. Type in the server address.

Should be easy. I found it amazingly hard.

Here are some links that might help.

www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO.html
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedor.../msg04217.html
leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/howto/pppserver.html
www.linuxgazette.com/issue36/ali.html

Come back with more specific questions if you get stuck.

The usm modem is in fact a gsm modul, but not to be scared it acts like a 56k modem .



"1/ Get the usb modem working. Start by getting it to dial out.
2/ Set up the modem to answer the phone and provide an IP connection.
3/ Once working, dialin. Start your browser. Type in the server address."


1/ the usb modem is working,it dials out etc...
2/ this is what i need to setup - but i dont have the clue how to do that( i will read the articles from that links...)


Thx...
