Anyone out there know how to establish a PPP link between two Redhat 5.0 boxes.  I have a server co-located at my ISP's site and another server at a remote site.  I want the server at the remote site to dial into the server at my ISP's location and establish a 24 X 7 PPP connection. &nbsp;I'm using modems at both ends.<br />
<br />
I've gotten to the point where I can dial-in to the server at my ISP from the remote system using mincom without <br />
any problems.  PPPD is running on both servers but, I can't seem to authenticate a login and establish a PPP<br />
connection.  I need to know specifically what files I need to modify and what scripts are needed to establish the PPP link. &nbsp;The remote Redhat 5.0 system is attached to a LAN, &nbsp;and the users on the LAN need to have<br />
internet access for email, web browsing etc.<br />

Linux to Linux PPP

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
