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.
