Hello, 
I am attempting to set up a dialup with PPP capabilities for my domain.
I, however, keep running into a problem since I am using a cyclades card
it appears that I need to use some flavor of getty that re-inits my modems
after a user hangs-up...I have tried several proposed ways of execing pppd
from the ttys file with little or no results.

	My problem lies in the requirments that I need to fulfill.  This
PPP dialup must accomplish these tasks:  It must work with WIN95 dial-up
networking, It must run on a Cyclades card.  
	What I have tried:
	I have tried calling pppd from ttys
	I have tried using AUTO_PPP that is supposed to be built into
mgetty.
	I have tried calling pppd from a .login
	I have tried calling pppd from rc.local
These are the problems:

	pppd will not respond to win95 or the modem isn't reinited after
someone calls in.

I seriously need some help on that, I would like to use mgetty simply
because if I need to use a shell I would like a non-ppp connection

ANYONE WITH EXPERIENCE IN THE ISP side of setting up PPP under freebsd
I would really appreciate your help.
