Look where mgetty searches for its lock file (in the mgetty debug log
file, written to where you defined LOG_PATH in policy.h, use "-x9" to make
sure all data is in there).

Then find out where pppd writes its lock file to, and if those are not the
same, change the setting in mgetty's policy.h and recompile.
