I have a PPP client setup to support dial on demand, however this
locks the
serial port preventing any call answering programs (such as mgetty) from
using the same serial port and modem.
Stop using dial on demand. It is completely useless when you are
connected
as a server anyway. Ie, if you want to use outgoing ppp, just run a
progrm
to start it instead of trying to do on demand.
Sorry Bill I forgot to mention that I'm using the linux box as a GPRS
router. When any PC connected to my Linux router box accesses any thing
remotely, the router will automatically fire up the GPRS modem. This bit
works well :-)
However I'd like the ability to dial up the router from work and poll a
few devices connected to it. Since I only have one serial port and one
modem, it would be nice to configure the Linux box to support
dial-on-demand and as a dial up server.
Regards,
Lee
