I was going to try and set up mgetty to allow me to call my machine from elsewhere for either ppp or shell access so I could connect from pretty much any machine with a modem. I need to also be able to locally initiate an outgoing call from this machine on the same modem for ppp or dialup access to other systems. Like any sensable person trying something new, I installed the package and began looking over the documentation, man pages, and config files. Figured it should be relatively straightforward to set it up. I managed only to confuse myself. mgetty does a lot, so how do I get it to do what I want and just what I want? All help appreciated.
