A link for a site that explains pppd program
Does anyone know of a website that gives a faqs that explains how to use pppd program? I want a website that will give examples of how to setup one pc to answer the incoming call and one that will call out.
I was told that the pppd program can be use to set up a dial up network between two pc.
I have already try man pppd and the information there was not helpfull to me since it mostly talks about dialing out and not about incoming calls.
I am running Knoppix 3.6 from cd and my friend is running the same version from cd.

one small question.
what wire do you have between the two computers?
the reason i aks is that there could be some difficulty if you use the wrong one, outsignal will try to go to outsignal pin on recieving computer if you do not go over a phoneline first.

I want to dial to my friends pc and have his pc, running Knoppix 3.6 from cd to answer the call. I want to create a dial up network between the two pcs.
Someone on the forums said that this can be done with pppd but could not explain to me how this could be done. The pppd needs script files so that one pc dials out and the other accepts the incoming call. The man page gives an example of dialing out but not for accepting a incoming call.
Do you know how I can setup a dial up network using pppd, which will be run from Knoppix 3.6 cd?
I hope this explain better what I want to do with pppd.

here you have a HOWTO desribing that using a nullmodem (a crossed serialcable), should be about the same with regular modems.
http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/...WTO/index.html
try and see.
basically you might configure the modem with an AT comand, (if i remember right ATS0=1) , then the authentication and so is up to you.
