Can anyone offer some tips on how to go about setting up pppd to act as:
1) An address server, i.e. assigning an IP address to another machine connected
via null modem to a serial port (ttyd0)
2) Providing a gateway for the null-modem connected box to enable it to connect
to external (Internet) hosts
I'm thinking the best way would be to edit the ttyd0 line in /etc/ttys, but I'm
not sure what would be the best options to use. Authentication is not needed,
as the only machine that will ever be connected to the serial port is local.
I'm also not sure if any special routing setup is needed. And I'd like the
connection to stay up as long as both machines are up.
Thanks in advance for any help.
