Dialup modem config

-as of Thu May 26 04:04:57 EDT 2005-

To to configure a dialup connection to an isp, or other server, first edit /lib/ndb/local and add an entry specifying the telephone number for the isp, eg:
sys=MYISP
	telco=01234,555,1234

The the following script can be used to start a ppp session. If the modem is connected to the first serial port (COM1 on a pc) then eia1 below should be changed to eia0.

This script assumes factotum and ndb/cs is already running.

#!/bin/rc
#
if (! test -e /srv/telco )
	telco /dev/eia1
if (! ip/ppp -f -P -b 57600 -k 'server=MYISP user=USERNAME'  -p telco!MYISP )
	exit 1
ndb/dns -r
