3 questions concerning mgetty

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Hello,


 I am having two problems that I can't seem to figure out.

First, When dialing in from a WIN 95 machine, I have to have my modem set to
19200 in order for the modem in the Linux box to answer. If I have the speed
set at 19200 on the calling machine, everything will work fine. I will get
the post-dialup window. Log in and launch PPPD. If the calling machine is
set at anything higher than 19200, the modem on the Linux box answers and
then hangs up. 

On the Linux side which is running kernel version 2.0.0, I have mgetty set
with the default portspeed of 38400 in the mgetty.config.

I used setserial to set the speed at 115200.

The modem is a not a brand name modem. It is an Apache 33.6 modem. I have
another one like it that runs well at 115200 with Win apps at my office.

The second question deals with the AutoPPP. It does not seem to work. I
compiled mgetty with the -DAUTO_PPP option.

I also uncommented the /AutoPPP/ line in the login.config.

When I call in from a Win95 machine. It just tells me that the computer is
not answering right now even though it does answer.

Sometimes it will state that it could not negotiate a set of protocols
between the two machines.

Does PPPD read its options files when it is launched from mgetty using
/AutoPPP/?

If that's the case, then I don't have to include all the options in the
command line.

Here is the relevant part of the log file running on the dial-in line.

I am sorry that the message became so long.

I would appreciate any help or suggestions.

Thanks,

Mike Castillo
