Thanks to all that recently helped me with my 'peer refuses to authenticate' problem.
Now I have gone 1 step further, and tried to implement callback for security reasons. I can does all of this manually by: 1) Connecting with minicom to the remote box 2) Logging in with a userid/password specified in /etc/mgetty/login.config 3) This session goes off hook, and minicom displays 'RING' when the remote system calls me back 4) I answer the call with ATA 5) I enter a userid/password on the remote box 6) start pppd on the remote bax, ie ppp7 7) I leave minicom, without resetting the modem 8) On my box, is issue pppd </dev/ttyS2 >/dev/ttyS2 For this point on... a ppp connection is established and I have full range of access to every machine at work. They now pay for the call, and I know that it's really me dialing in. :) What I would like to do to automate this process. I have tried a couple chatscripts but after the login prompt and response is sent, the ATA is never seen, and thus, the call is never answered. As a side note, can windows/95 establish a connection like this? -- Walter L.
