Hiya all, is it good practice to set up a ppp dial back account as follows: o first make a regular account, that triggers a script o this script takes control of a modem, and calls back to a certain number o the user then has to configure its machine to handle the incoming connection? Can anyone point me to a source for info on this subject, or has anyone done it his/herself? I'm using user ppp, with mgetty on a FreeBSD-box (but I think the os is irrelevant here). Tricky things are (I think) how to control the modem, and how to _give_ a login prompt to the dial-out line..
