I followed a very good howto on tldp.org. To make it work on openbsd i had to make some minor adaptations, like the devices not being ttyS0, but cua0X, and so on. But expect very low rates. I managed to transfer files between them, using ssh, at rates of 15Kb/s. I played also with plip, but i don't know if there is something similar with it on openbsd. On linux <-> linux communication you can achieve higher rates than with ppp. Be careful, with the setup on openbsd, cause you have 2 daemons: the ppp(userland) and pppd(kernel). I only tested it with pppd. but it should work with the ppp daemon also.
